Hello,

i want to install Creo6 with Win11 on an new computer. The licensfile is ok, only windows firewall is installed.

When i start the licensidentification everything looks ok, after dropping the licensfile into i get the message "is started" but after this nothing happens and no further reaction or message (also after some minutes).

What is the problem?

Thanks Alex

Problem is soved, installed C++ with older versions and opened 7788 in the firewall. Then it worked. Also Creo 6.0 runs with Win11 till now without problems.

Thanks for your helps Alex

Whenever I have something like this to do, I get my VAR involved. It usually gets things done quicker.

If I remember correctly, I had this exact problem a couple of times in the past, with license server hanging on “Starting” status. The solution was to install Visual C++ Redistributable libraries, as some components were missing in the operating system.

You can check installation media for addons or prerequisites, there should be Visual C++ installers included you can use.

Basic check - Does Creo 6 run on Windows 11?

Article - CS348041 - Compatibility of Creo Parametric with Microsoft Windows 11

The answer is NO.
