Can't Render in SOLIDWORKS Visualize 2024

Hey everyone, I'm facing a strange issue with SolidWorks Visualize and hoping someone can help.

My setup:

  • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3050
  • CPU: Intel Core i7
  • RAM: 20

The problem: Every time I open SolidWorks Visualize, everything works fine at first. But as soon as I start adding elements like a background, lights, or cameras, the performance drops significantly. After that, the software stops responding when I try to save the project or render it. It doesn't give a specific error — it just doesn't complete the action.

I've updated my GPU drivers and tried restarting, but the issue keeps happening.

Has anyone experienced something similar or found a fix?
