What is the most stable build level?

Best answer by StephenW

I never mind upgrading build codes since you can always downgrade. Most of the time they are usually helpful, only once or twice have I had a major issue that forced a downgrade.

I know here, they typically have someone remote in to install the build codes so updating all the users becomes a major undertaking.

Now going to a new major release, that's a pain.

The next one (always the correct answer)

    Thanks for the giggle Mike...

    While I agree with the logic, I have seen where new builds do fix a lot of bugs but also create new ones.

    History, and reason for the question:

    Change at my location makes pulling teeth an easy affair and after two years of begging, we went from WF4 to Creo 2 M100.

    I noticed quite a few things that were not working like I anticipated and I, and only I, loaded M180 because of a post here stating I think over 600 bug fixes from m120 to M180.  While some of these items I was concerned about disappeared with the M180 build, not all were.

    So I figure I have only one snowball chance in he77 to get this right so I am putting it out to the guru's so I can go back and say "this is it"!

    (I've been on M180 for about a week, the rest have been requested to change to M100 but are reluctant to move from WF4)

    I agree with Mike 100%. I am on M170 (about a month or 2) and it seems good.

    Stephen,

    What version/build did you enhance from?

    Have you noticed anything different in your working with CP2?

    I don't specifically remember but I think it was M150. I believe I started Creo 2 on M060 then M090, M100, M120, M150.

    Sometimes I will ask for a specific build to see if it fixes some issue we are experiencing. Usually they were pre-tested by our CAD Admin group but haven't been pushed out for whatever reason.

    I haven't notice much of anything with this build, which is a good thing. I did experience a PDMLink workspace issue when the upgrade was applied but that was really my fault since I hadn't cleaned up and rebuilt my local cache in some time.  I think the PDMLink issue may have also been associated to the Creo 3 installation at the same time as the build upgrade, but it still is really a workspace maintenance issue I brought on to myself.
