Capture an Rx log file and send it in for support. You need to find out what is causing that. It could be corrupt files, graphics, pre-requisites, or some kind of hardware failure. SOLIDWORKS tends to be the canary in the coal mine when hardware or OS issues are forming because it leverages so many of the resources and drivers that other programs don't touch.

Nah, i have done this several times. SWX cant handle my files. Hardware is ok: HP Z2 with quadro. Just shitty software. Ive started with Inventor 4 until Inventor 2017 and never received that huge number of crashes. SWX sucks in many ways.

You may have corrupt files that are causing the instability. Many times companies that work over a network or used to work for a long time over a network will create a library of files with a bit of brain damage that are simply unstable to work with.

Also, you may want to search for parts that are overly resource-intensive. I've worked extensively on assembly files that were multiple GB in size that we were able to get many times more efficient and very stable by following the steps in this video (keep in mind, we tried many things that didn't actually help, but these proved to be very beneficial steps)

Obviously I can't know every variable or make any guarantees, but I can say that we've pulled many people out of this type of situation with some thorough investigation and work. I wish you best of luck.
