I manage eSupport access for my users, some of which have left the company. How do I remove these accounts from the eSupport account management list?Thanks in advance.

Hi ​@PeterCase since yesterday evening, it has been impossible to access the Performance Advisor pages.I tried using this link  And this is the result  The same thing happens when you refresh a page that was previously open and had been working fine up until that point.

Hello Team,We are currently attempting to enable the Performance Advisor feature in ThingWorx 9.6 by navigating to:PlatformSubsystems > Metrics Reporting > Request AuthorizationHowever, when initiating the authorization request, we receive the following error message:“An error occurred while attempting to contact PTC.

​@PeterCase ​@RomainGarcia ,One of the most useful things when reading a modified support article is being able to see what changes have been made to it. Until now, this hasn’t been possible, but while reading the updates to this critical article, which has been edited several times in recent days, I noticed that a table with the change log has been added at the bottom of the page. Was this done solely because of the urgency of the article’s content and the frequent edits, or are you working on extending this feature to all other edited articles as well? Thanks  Marco

I’m trying to download and install the 30-day free trial of PTC Windchill Risk and Reliability (formerly Windchill Quality Solutions), but I’m encountering an issue when accessing the trial link. When I click on the download link, I receive the following message:“Document Not Found — The web page, PTC Windchill Quality Solutions Evaluation, was retired on September 30, 2025.” Could someone from the PTC team or community please assist with obtaining access to the 30-day trial?My company is evaluating this software for potential purchase and would like to test its functionality before moving forward. @PeterCase 

The Knowledge Base Search page returns a blank page. Is there an issue for others or is it just me? 

@PeterCase  While trying to read one of the articles sent by support (in my case, once a day), I came across this one which, as stated in the title of this discussion, is not visible to customers.   https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS452584   I wonder if there is a way to intercept these types of articles and prevent them from being included in the email with the subject line “PTC Technical Support eNews & Alerts.”   If technical support has decided that the article should not be visible, I don't think it makes much sense for all users who have subscribed to support articles to be aware of it.    

I have entered 5 queries to the Knowledgebase this morning and they have all return just a blank page. Is there an issue for others with the Knowledgebase or is it just me?  

We’re aware of the current access issues affecting PTC.com and PTC eSupport. Our team is working with our service provider to restore full functionality as quickly as possible. Thank you for your patience - we’ll share updates here as soon as they’re available. Peter.

I'm trying to troubleshoot some issues today and it seems like most of the support articles are missing from the KB search results.  I suspect maybe a search index issue, but not sure.  I just know it's making it really hard to find solutions.  I'm resorting to other search engines, but even those seem to be finding only a subset of what used to be there.   Simple example.  This should return dozens, if not hundreds of support articles:    

Hello, I am getting the following message when trying to access the support case website. Is there anything I need to adjust on my account to be able to access this website? Thanks,Tanner
