Hi /u/samehmuhammad,

I typed this into Google:

"Register_DocMgrDLL.A48C1CF2_EBF8_48E8_ACAD_68CA04F776A2"

...and the first result that came back was a similar error from a SOLIDWORKS Forum post here (https://forum.solidworks.com/thread/87134) that described this as an issue with a Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installation. You would want to go to your own installation files (download or DVD; whichever) and go into these folders

  • ..\prereqs\vcredist9

  • ..\prereqs\vcredist10

  • ..\prereqs\vcredist11

...and execute all the "vcredist_x64.exe" and "vcredist_x86.exe" installations found in these folders. They will either install anew or ask to repair an existing installation so either install or repair when prompted. Once you have installed/repaired all installs go back and run your SOLIDWORKS installation again.
