Is it possible to run PTC Creo in virtual machine and connect to it trough Windows remote desktop?

I have installed PTC Creo on a virtual machine in Hyper V, Windows Server 2012 r2, and then I connect to the VM through Windows Remote Desktop. It works fine when I run it locally on the server but it won't work when I remotely connected to the VM.

 

Anyone that have had this problem and found a solution for it or doesn't exist a solution for the problem?

 

I've attached a picture of the failure down below.

Hi,

probably your license is locked, therefore you cannot run Creo via Remote Desktop. You need floating license to be able to do it.

    Hi, thanks for the quick response!

    How do I obtain a floating license? I've searched on Google on the floating license but didn't find any related information.

    They cost extra.  You have to pay for the floating option.  You will need to contact your PTC reseller.
