How do I enable extensions in Student Premium

I just installed Creo 10 Student Premium. The support.inf file doesnโ€™t list the Reverse Engineering module so I need to enable it. Unlike the commercial license there is no selection for Licensing in the File>Options menu for this. Have not found any help in the support forum. 
Seems like a job for a license configuration tool but there is no guidance for Student Premium. 
any ideas?

Hi,

  • Reverse_Engineering module has code number 209
  • number 209 does not appear in your license file

This means you cannot use Reverse_Engineering module.

 

INFO:

Look at https://www.ptc.com/en/store/creo/student/creo-university-student-premium page. After clicking Key Features tab, the contents of the package is displayed. Reverse_Engineering module is not present.

 

Note:

It seems to me that https://www.studica.com/images/uploaded/Resources/PTC/Creo10_Education_Editions_Comparation_Chart.pdf content is not up to date.

Hi,

I think https://www.ptc.com/en/store/creo/student/creo-university-student-premium does not contain REX (Reverse Engineering Extension).

You can ask PTC ... enter your request on http://support.ptc.com/appserver/support/academic_case_logger/academic_case_logger.jsp page

Hi Martin

 

FYI - Creo 10 Student Premium does include REX, and a few other goodies as well.

Sorry for the partner link but I could not find it on PTC.

 

Part of the problem is that all of the available help refers to floating license configuration in the options menu, whereas the educational versions use a node-locked license. Selecting the Floating Licenses menu in the Options dialog just results in a "There are no floating licenses available" message.

 

I will use the support link you suggested.

 

Thanks for the reply.

Hi,

Please open your license file in Notepad. It must contain list of items ... something like this:

#**************************************** Summary Table *******************************************************
# PTC Host ID 00-50-56-91-FC-F1
#FeatureName Qty Product Release Type Expiration Contract
#**************************************************************************************************************
#346 1 Intelligent Fastener Extension 
#209 1 Reverse Engineering (Restyle) 
#379 1 Creo Simulation Live 
#93 1 VERIFY 
#PROE_EssentialsM 1 Creo Essentials 
#MATHCAD 1 Mathcad Subscription 
#MATHCADSDK 1 Mathcad Prime SDK 
#MECELITEENG_License 1 Creo Simulation Elite ENG 
#MECELITEUI_License 1 Creo Simulation Elite UI 
#MathcadPrime 1 Mathcad Subscription 
#MathcadPrimeSDK 1 Mathcad Prime SDK 
#CREOSCHEM_Lite 1 Creo Schematics Lite 

If all items are locked then parametric.psf file must contain line like this to have REX license available:

ENV=CREOPMA_FEATURE_NAME=PROE_EssentialsM (209)

Try modifying parametric.psf file this way.
