Hello all. Although I've used ProE for three years, I've only just discovered this website. Sad, huh?
Forgive me if this has been answered and I just lacked the skills to find it. I searched the CAD and Sys Admin categories and found similar questions, but following the suggestions provided did not solve my problem.
I can not get purge.bat to work in my new installation of WF5. Apparently lots of folks have had difficulties setting up the right-click menu but I can't even get it to work by cutting and pasting into the desired directory and running it from there.
My load point: C:\Program Files\proeWildfire 5.0.
My working directory is on a shared engineering drive within our network. I have customer sub-directories within the main work directory.
My purge.bat is as delivered, I haven't tampered with it. From what I can tell, it's identical to the purge.bats in our WF2 and WF4 installations.
I've tried the different commands inside the "folder options->file types->advanced->new->action->application....." that have been suggested in these forums but it's still non-functional.
One of the posts suggested add a system variable pointing to the load point. I did that, but maybe got the syntax wrong(?).
I've tried copying a work directory out of the shared drive and onto my C:\ and running purge - both the cut and paste method, and the right-click. No dice.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I fear I've gotten so frustrated over this that I'm now missing something obvious.
