"look under hkey_current_user \ software \ solidworks \ solidworks \ 200x extreferences. there is a key called "solidworks journal folders", the value of the key is the path of the newspaper file, just set that location to a valid one"
I agree with gibass,
I'm convinced that if you check the path in the register, it doesn't point to your pc or an existing folder.
verify well to which user points.
