PTC Creo View Startup

Both desktop and laptop failed within a month of each other so after a hard drive wipe, I reinstalled all my software.

 

However, I installed PTC Creo 'before' I installed Outlook (so at the time of reinstallation, I didn't have access to the licence file but now I do). I thought I could add the licence file after installation but when I run PTC Creo 3.0, I get a pop-up titled "PTC Creo View Startup".

 

I selection the edition (Creo View Standard) and for MCAD Licence Options I select "Load when required" for both interference analysis and animator.

 

It asks for "Licence Information" (i.e. licence server) and Pre-configured Licence Servers...

 

...but it does allow me to drag/drop the licence file.

 

Can anyone help? I reviewed the 3 pages of problems that others experienced, including going to C: > Program Files > PTC > Creo 3.0 > M040 > Options Modeler > bin > "reconfigure" but that doesn't work.

Yep. That's the easiest solution. I was just hoping to avoid that and thought there was a quick fix. Thanks!
