For example, nVidia and AMD have their implementation of OpenGL in their corresponding drivers. OpenGL is a graphics language specification which is implemented by the respective graphics card vendors. SOLIDWORKS uses OpenGL technology for rendering. What is OpenGL? What is a graphics driver? Please go through the below article to get a better perspective of graphics. To summarize, the key to resolving synchronization issues between PDM and Manage is to ensure the Manage add-in is working properly in PDM.
To save time, you can avoid scanning the entire PDM vault by only selecting the PDM folders where files are out of synch.

The “Synchronization details” dialog appears and you can run the synchronization to update the files in Manage. On the Connection page of the wizard, select “Enable Synchronization and get all PDM objects”. In the Administration tool, go to Structures > Documents and Records and edit the PDM object. If the synchronization between PDM and Manage is working now but there are files that are still out of synch with Manage, you’ll need to re-synchronize the PDM object in Manage. If this doesn’t resolve the issue, contact your support team for assistance. There are a couple Knowledge Base solutions that may help troubleshoot the issue. If there is a failed to register error, the troubleshooting is similar to other PDM add-ins that fail to load. In this scenario, you must include the configuration file (SWManage.swmc) with the add-in from step 1 or else the user will not connect to Manage. If they are not a Manage user, it may not be necessary to login to the client. If a user has never logged into the Manage client, the tab will not appear until after they have opened the Manage client and login. If no error appears, the add-in likely registered but the tab may not appear until after a reboot or a restart of explorer. If the add-in was just loaded, browse into the PDM vault and right-click on a file. Do you see the Manage tab in the PDM vault view? If the tab is missing, the most common issue is the add-in failed to register.This can be done by deleting the add-in and loading it back. If the add-in is a different version, it must be updated to match the version of the Manage clients. In the newer versions of Manage (2020 SP3 and SP4), the version number of the swm.swpdm add-in is now displayed when you look in the PDM Administration tool of the add-in’s folder. To check the version of the add-in, you can browse into PDM and if you see the Manage tab, simply hover your cursor over the tab and the version number will appear.

As part of the upgrade process, the add-in must be updated. Is the add-in the same version as Manage? The add-in is not automatically updated during an upgrade.It must be named exactly “SWManage.swmc”. The configuration file is necessary for users that do not have Manage installed in order to connect to the Manage database. You also should add the configuration file, SWManage.swmc. You will need to add the following files: and. If not, go to the PDM Administration tool and load the add-in from the Manage client folder (default location is C:\Program Files\SOLIDWORKS Corp\SOLIDWORKS Manage). The first thing to check is if the Manage add-in is loaded in PDM Here are some steps to go through when this issue occurs. The Manage add-in will push any changes in PDM to Manage.
This is typically caused by an issue with the Manage add-in inside of PDM.
A common issue is when changes are done in PDM and the changes do not appear when the record is viewed in Manage. SOLIDWORKS Manage works closely with SOLIDWORKS PDM. Troubleshooting SOLIDWORKS Manage and PDM Integration
