    1. Life saver! I have changed the settings of the program to run only as Administrator (right click on the SW2020 icon -> Settings -> Compatibility -> Run as Administrator". Now it works just lie a charm!

    2. I enabled "Run as Administrator", but it seems to disable drag and drop from Windows to Solidworks. I have had to start toggling "Run as Adminstrator" as needed.
