Hello

From time to time, I get its error messages when opening files, what is it due to?

swShellFileLauncher

And also this:

Are there several versions of SolidWorks installed?

SW13 and SW16?

This can be a source of problems.

Be sure to check where the file locations point. Sometimes it no longer finds the right (last) path because it points to folders of old versions where there is nothing left.

It's from Option/File Location that you can see where all the files point:
