Creo doesn't search sub-folders. You have to explicitly tell it exactly what folder(s) to search.

You can have more than one search folder in the config.pro.

You would have to have at least the third one for Creo to find your file.

Be advised, the more folders you tell creo to search, the longer it takes.

This type of thing comes up from time to time. Here's a discussion that might be helpful

 

Past path discussion (with batch file for building files) 

 

I've got projects with dozens of subdirectories. I don't want to add them to my default search path, so I only append them to the search path when I'm working on a specific project.
