What are you trying to launch, the parametric.exe or the parametric.bat?

You need to launch the parametric.bat as it calls the parametric.exe with linkage to the parametric.psf..

The parametric.psf contains the information for you modules and license.

Can you loacte these files through Windows Explorer?

Did you install the FlexNet license manager with a valid license for the version of Creo you are trying to run?

In addition to what Ben said, did you set your startup directory to path where you have write permissions? You can see you current startup directory by right-clicking Creo shortcut > Properties > Start in field. You should have a path there pointing to a folder where your user has write permissions.

EDIT:

On the other hand, maybe I didn't understand you correctly the first time What file are you supposed to open? Is it .psf file, by any chance?
