Kyle,

information about Simulate license is saved in feature.dat file located in Creo2_LOADPOINT\Creo 2.0\Common Files\Mxxx\mech\text\licensing\mech directory. Check the contents of the file.

Example of feature.dat file containing Creo Simulation Basic license"

MEC_BASIC_UI "MECBASICUI_License"
MEC_BASIC_ENG "MECBASICENG_License"
STRUCT_UI "<No license features>"
STRUCT_ENGINE "<No license features>"
STRUCT_THERMAL_UI "<No license features>"
STRUCT_THERMAL_ENGINE "<No license features>"

Kyle,

Just add the value (MECBASICUI_License and MECBASICENG_License) from Martin's example should fix the issue. If you don't have write permission in that folder save feature.dat top desktop and later move that in folder.
