    Hi @Iraj_Givechi !

    Sorry that this is providing some difficulty.  As seen on this help page:
    https://cad.onshape.com/help/Content/uploadfiles.htm

    "When importing a SolidWorks Pack and Go file, the name of the zip file must exactly match the name of the top level assembly and the zip file must be flat-packed, that is, have no folder structure."

    Most likely you just need to rename your zip file to "10000406.zip." before uploading it, but it may be more complicated than that depending on how you exported from SolidWorks.
