I have downloaded Creo 7 from school PTC program and I unzipped "MED-100WIN-CD-450_8-0-0-0_Win64.zip" archive. Then, following "PTC Creo 7.0 - Schools Edition - Quick Installation Guide", I disabled antivirus and firewall. Then right click on setup.exe --> run as administrator.
Nothing happens. I placed the unzipped installation package into a C:\PTC_install directory and launched C:\PTC_install\setup.exe, nothing still happened. I have a 64 bit computer and I am running windows 11

Hi,

Windows 11 operating system is not supported. You can try changing setup.exe properties and set compatibility mode to Windows 10 (if this option is available).

Also you can try copying Creo installation from another computer.

 Hi,

 

Did you follow this instruction - "PTC Creo 8.0 - Schools Edition - Quick Installation Guide" (product code BE800908EDSTUDENTEDK12)? Link: https://apps.ptc.com/schools/references/install_creo8_schools_standard.pdf

 

P.S. "MED-100WIN-CD-450_8-0-0-0_Win64.zip" - this is Creo 8.0 package.

Hello,

Here you are in the community "Creo Elements Direct" which is not Creo Parametric. You may have more support if you move your post to "Creo Parametric".
