Trying to export .slx and its associated files to allow me to work from a faster PC.

Hello,

I am currently working from my personal computer, with a .slx file and associated .step files saved on its hard drive.

I have tried to .zip/copy/save as to an external hard drive to transfer it to a more powerful PC that I have access to.

As soon as I load up the .slx it comes with numerous errors and won't run, stating that the file path is missing. I have changed the current working folder and can see the files it is looking for but it won't work.

Any way of exporting that I am missing?

kind regards,

Mark

In each of the file solid blocks, the path to the .step file is usually absolute. That full path can be different when you move to a different computer. You'll need to manually change them, most likely to relative path like "./???.STEP', so it remains valid if you share the model with someone else or move to another computer.

Another place to check is in Model Explorer (Ctrl+H), look for where it loads the .m file that defines all the block parameters. It may be using the full path, too. Change it as well if that's the case.
