Have you ever edited the materials in the custom property of your piece?

Hello

Have you tried to:

1) Close the room to reopen it?

2) Restart SolidWorks

3) Restart the workstation?

It looks like a bug...

First thing: restart Solidworks.

Then if it does the same, it's possible that you've lost the links to the material libraries in System Option/File Location/Material Databases

Hello

It's a question that comes up from time to time, the registry needs to be reset.

When I right-click on the part, I don't have access to the material menu

As indicated in the links mentioned by LF:

You have to go to the registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\SolidWorks\SolidWorks 20XX\general\Excel Edit Open and change the value to 0
