some files of the correct type (.sldprt or .sldasm) not opening in solidworks

I'm currently using Solidworks 2015 student addition. I downloaded files from grabcad containing part and assembly files but only some of the files open correctly. When trying to open the other files Solidworks gives me the message: an error was encountered while trying to open your file. Contact technical support for a possible solution. please help...
