Is it possible to make the folder structure naming consistant for Creo Parametric (2.0)?
After Wildfire 5 (CE Pro) the folder structure for Creo is based upon the release and maintenance build.
For example, under the main install folder, there is a "Creo 2.0" sub-folder.
I assume this will change when Creo Parametric 3 comes out.
And under "Creo 2.0" there is a "Common Files" folder with a sub-folder for the maintenance release.
In my case, this is M060.
Because of toolkit plug-ins from various vendors, we use a batch file to configure things just before launching Wildfire/Creo.
The batch file looks for various files in the folder structure, and make decisions based upon what is found.
With Creo, the folder structure is a moving target.
Any recomendations on how to best deal with this?

Thanks to all that replied.
Everyone confirmed that there is no way to force a consistant folder structure.
I was hoping that there might be some hidden install options to do so.
And all the solutions offerred are based on batch file scripting to find the build number.
This is what I was planning to do anyway, if a more elegant way was not found.
Thanks again!
