Hello Together,

our company Blocks the acces for programs to the Documents folder so i need to change to config directory. I've already read that PTC help article about the IFX_USER_CONFIG_PATH but it isnt working for me.

I'm adding it like this in the default ifx_start_mdl.cfg:

IFX_USER_CONFIG_PATH "Path:\to\folder"

I'm currently running Creo Parametric 9.0.6.0 on windows 10. (The Documents Block only applies to our win11 machines)

Any guess what i'm doing wrong? Maybe editing the wrong config?

Regards,

General

Hi Pascal,

the IFX_USER_CONFIG_PATH is an environment variable.

You have to set it to your system or you can add it in a start skript or something else.

It must point to the configuration folder from IFX.

You can add mor than one configuration directory, seperated by semikolon.

Hi,

sorry for the somekind late answer, after some intense googling about those environment variables (thanks for mentioning it again here, if not i wouldn't have solved it) i created a bat which gets executed every start.

Hi, You can update parametric.psf file in Creo installation directory also. Just add that variable in psf file. you dont need to run bat file for each start.
