Creo2 PSF Descriptions not showing up in license borrow selection

We have 5 different .bat / .psf combinations for launching Creo 2 M090. They are used for different license configurations.

I was trying to borrow a license and the startup configurations all show Creo Default C Drive. I got stuck there because I didn't want to pick the wrong one and get stuck with a borrowed license that I can't return (can anyone detect a sore spot?).

I understood that it would show the DESC value in the .psf files, but it is not showing them

Any ideas?

never mind. The knucklehead that made the .psf files had 2 DESC lines. I only saw the first one (where it was supposed to be) and wasn't looking for multiples.

They shouldn't all say "Creo Default". This has to be configured when the software is installed or revised.

Also, you can change manually in the psf:

Ok, yes you could edit the files manually.

But, if you're trying to set up for a scripted install for all your machines, you don't want to do that.
You want the information to be in the xml file called from the install command.

"C:\ptc\Staging_Folder\Creo 2.0-m090\Creo 2.0-m090 software\setup.exe" -xml "C:\ptc\Staging_Folder\Creo 2.0-m090\new_install\pma.p.xml"

Personally I don't want to futz around inside these files to change things. I rather do it right to begin with.
