When SolidWorks can't find your part files

I indicated that students must create a folder for each project in the Parametric Solid Modeling class at Southern Maine Community College, and that submissions require that the folder be placed in your "Please Grade" folder on your Google Drive. So many students didn't do that correctly, so there is a video showing why, and what you can do to make sure that you submit ALL necessary files for assemblies and drawings.

Thanks for sharing. What if you are receiving a complete assembly package but SolidWorks is unable to locate the reference parts when you try to open the assembly? How would I designate the proper file path for SolidWorks to access the entire package I've just downloaded?

I have a slightly different issue. I'm trying to simulate my work but it says "Result files not available, copy the correct result files to working directory and reopen the document"

My problem is slightly different.
I am running SolidWorks on a Virtual Machine on Linux.
And I am opening the Main Assembly from a shared folder in Linux.
All the part files are already in the same directory, yet SW can not find them even when it is highlighting them in the open dialog box.
I do have just press Open, and then it gets it, but I have several 100 parts in this assembly so it gets tedious! What am I doing wrong?

Ok, a question, when i open a simple part and i wanna find location fast, how i do that?To be able also to copy that location path etc...?
