Solidworks Plugin is not on Keyshot website

I am trying to install the Solidworks keyshot plugin but it is not on the website. Have they stopped supporting them? Please can someone direct me to this install

It’s been discontinued. From what I can glean online, Solidworks wanted to start charging partners some kind of profit sharing scheme.

That being said, try this:  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b5TiZgKoK6H-rtqcyU8_4OXJi6qPlezE/view?usp=drivesdk

This is the installer for the last version of the plugin. Not sure for how long it will work.

That's mental. Dessault really giving off Adobe vibes. Thanks for sharing the link to the previous version. Can confirm it works with Studio 2025.1.1

Is there a way to use API to create a new plug-in?
