Creo Express Shell Quickstart - I can't get it to Suppres the bosses

I'm working on the shell portion of the quickstart block, but I can't seem to get this to work. I followed the video but after choosing all the bosses and then click end, then preview, I still see the same thing. Am I doing it wrong or is there a bug? I try to follow the view bits a time so I can do the same steps, but I'm just not having any luck. Any ideas/feedback?

You need to use the Suppress Feature option

Click on the "From Inner" button - the select tool will open. Select all faces of this feature (simply by a box for example or one by the other)

Then those faces will be suppressed. see attached images

it might be helpful for other users if you upload the part (pk2) before and after you used the shell command.

And please highlight the face you have selected as OPEN FACE. If it really looks identical before and after you might check which face you have selected as open face.

Okay, here's what I got so far...and I also just uploaded the video of what I did. The first part of the video was my mistake so that's why I redid it again.
