Hi all,


I am planning to upgrade my computers O.S. fromWin XP 32 bit to Win 7 64 bit. Do I need a new license pack to run the existing s/w (Pro/E WF 4 & 5)? What if I were todownload and install the 64 bit versions of these? Do I need a new license pack for that?


Cheers!

Your existing licenses should work fine as long as you're not moving to
a new version (Creo 1.0). License is OS and platform neutral.

But you WILL want to download and use the 64bit versions...

The Pro/E DVD's should contain the 32bit and 64bit versions of the software. As Anthonly pointed out, you will need to install the 64bit version. The same license file will work as Doug mentioned.


Just pointing out that the two versions are on the DVD's because some people miss this. 🙂
