Is there way to convert Solidworks assembly to Parasolid file without using the Solidworks program?

Recently I was working remotely in Onshape and had to import a Solidworks assembly but did not have access to the Solidworks program to export the assembly file as .x_t. The assembly and all the parts were in a Google Drive folder so I made a zip package, named it the same as the assembly file, and tried to import it into Onshape. The start was promising, Onshape recognized the zip and started the import but it failed and returned a message the file name of the zip is not matching the assembly (which it did). So a long story short, with all the difficulties with this zip package workaround, does anyone know a way or third-party software to convert Solidworks assembly to Parasolid without using the Solidworks program?

You should be able to get it imported though. If the zip thing isn't working It could be a bug or user error. If you're sure you don't want to try that my next guess would be to download a free trial of something to convert it. Maybe Fusion 360 or Rhinocerous has something for you.Evan Reese0
