Hello, 

So I'm trying to download PTC Creo 4.0 on my personal computer so I can work on homework at home. I had PTC Creo 3.0 on the same device a year ago for a different class but now when I try to download Creo 4.0 it keeps saying my license is expired. Every time I try to renew my license the system does not recognize my username and password. How can I get a license that isn't expired?

I've had the same problem for months and haven't been able to resolve it.

Hi,

 

according to my todays tests, when you launch setup-schools.exe, installation procedure will receive license file containing Creo 3.0 licenses instead of Creo 4.0 licenses.

 

Solution no.1:

  • remove all files from C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing directory
  • install Creo 3.0

Solution no.2:

  • remove all files from C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing directory
  • install Creo 4.0 ... launch setup.exe
  • enter Product Code BK410705EDSTUDENTUNICL (if you are university student)
  • you will receive license file containing Creo 4.0 licenses

Fought for hours finally got 4.0 up and running error free. After deleting all old product licenses in c:\programdata\ptc\liicensing and an initial run of setup.exe using BK410705EDSTUDENTUNICL product code the error was still present. Went back to c:\programdata\ptc\liicensing BK410705EDSTUDENTUNICL. Dat was present but creo couldn’t locate the file. Drag and drop the file into the Med-100win-cd-410_m30_win64 folder with the product files, click setup.exe again, select reconfigure existing software, then drag the BK...license.dat file into the license summary, source bar and click next. Should fix the problem.
