Error Importing SolidWorks Parts

I am trying to import a SolidWorks model from the 2018 version of SolidWorks to Altair SolidThinking Inspire 2018 and I keep getting a message saying unsupported file version or format. I have tried a model from SolidWorks 2016 and I am still getting the same error. I've attached a screenshot of the error message.

Hello,

Are you using solidworks EDU edition ? The files saved from such version is not supported. Can you please share the solidworks file ? We will check and let you know.

Thanks.

No I saved it on SolidWorks Professional 2018 SP4. I've attached the file.
