Question

File version mismatching Creo 9 version

Hello,

 

I have been having problems with my Creo 9 (Student Edition) installation.

When I try to open the Surface Finish Gallery or the Hatching Configurator I keep  getting the warning that the corresponding file "was created with a commercial version of Creo Parametric and is not compatible with the Creo Parametric Student Edition (for educational use only) you are running." after which the program shuts down completely.
I am sure this problem exteds beyond the mentioned configuration files.

A reinstallation of Creo did not fix this (neither did a second one).

There has not been any other version of Creo installed on my computer, nor have I uses any other license apart from the Student license I am currently using.
Is there a way to fix this problem?
Is it even wise to use the most recent version of Creo or are previous versions generally more stable?

Thaks in advance for any input.

Looks like PTC put the wrong files in the dataset for Creo 9 Student Edition for those files.

The Student Edition has its own community board for issues,

Commercial files can't be opened in the student edition and vice versa.
