The installer of any University approved version of PTC CREO (7.0.8.0 and 9.0.0.0) is not running with no error message given. The process simply terminates after a few seconds before a window is opened.

The only thing that I was able to do now is have a second boot drive with a second windows installation. Far from ideal.

The usual run as administrator and kill all unnecessary processes did not work. I also tried to install in protected mode but that failed, not because of the setup.exe not running but because of some required component being not available.

Hi,

1.]

What is full absolute path to setup.exe you are starting?

2.]

What language version of Windows is installed on your computer?

As recommended in a different thread I moved the installation files to C:\install

My computer is running on German Windows. Though I don't think that affected the installation as I was able to install CREO 5 and 7 previously during my Bachelors.

I did manage to create a memory dump file from the setup.exe before it closed if that would be of help for bug fix purposes.
