[2012] recovery sp5

[cacciatorino]

I bought a new computer and I was reinstalling swx today. arrived at the upgrade stage the system warned me that not having a maintenance contract I can not download updates. I've got sp5 on my old PC. Is there gonna be a way to recover it and pass it on the new computer? Will you just copy the program folder and the registry key?

p.s. of course there would be to discuss this thing that solidworks corp. change the rules to your liking retroactively....

I think it is prevented from the download service (which is absurd) but not the installation of the sp5, release to which you arrived during the maintenance validity. If so, I think you can install the version with sp5 regardless of the origin of data (dvd, torrent, ...), without resorting to anything illegal.

I wrote to my ex-var. In case of negative response, I'll do as you say, the only thing that stops me is the risk of installing who knows what crap in my computer, going to recover files like that on unofficial channels. . .

but when you did the update you did not download the service pack locally?
if you do not personally change location a folder is created solidworks download in directory c: where updates are downloaded

I have to check, I don't want to have it cleaned up.

I actually erased it. I just got a sp3 left.

there are programs that recover deleted files. You could see if you can get him back.
Recuva, brother of ccleaner, for example.
Of course even if you can recover it is not said to be perfect, maybe some files went lost or overwritten.
therefore helmet in the head well-laid, lights on even day, and prudence. Always! ... always (cit.)

If you are a license holder you can do it quietly. especially if you came to the sp5 obviously you had a title to install it and that remains "your".
when I download updates I always do it in the full version, not only files that call back to the remote server, so you can install as and where I want, even off line completely from zero.

as I said the problem was born from the fact that by mistake I had deleted the download made at his time of the sp5.
