Question

Creo installation stuck at 'processing'

Hi,

 

I was using Creo 6, 7 and 8 as a member of a formula student team. But recently I reinstalled windows and when I am trying to install any version of Creo, after entering the product code it is stuck at 'processing'. I tried disabling firewall and ipv6 of my router, no success.

 

I am kinda desperate now as I am not able to work properly without Creo....

My internet connection is stable. My problem is completely different as I said, installer is stuck at the licence page at 'processing'.

I don't think we can do anything at the moment, I feel like it is caused by how windows handling MAC Address and win11 changes their virtuallization security too. Installer is not able to pick up the correct Host ID, and something wrong with server side too i guess. Abdul is trying to help me manually generate license from PTC directly. But due to the MAC Address installer picking up is a virtual network adapter, Windows change that every couple hours randomly, Need a way to manually change Host ID Setip in Advanced License Entry and ask Abdul with your real physical MAC. In the meantime, cross fingers and enjoy onshape......

So will this ever be fixed and are we somehow the only PTC users affected by this?
(If it would apply to all PTC installers, you would think a fix would be on the way...?)
