License not found

[jousefmrd]

Hi there!

Just installed the academic version of Creo Parametric 6.0.2.0 but the license cannot be found. I got a license pack via mail and want to know where to put the file in?

Thanks in advance! 🙂

Hi Martin, is this supposed to be a hyperlink?

Hi,

• launch reconfigure from Creo's Parametric/bin sub-directory
• in License Identification dialog box in License Summary section enter path to saved license file into Source field
• finish reconfiguration

Hey Martin!

Thanks for your response. Just checked and there is no reconfigure file as far as I can tell. Does it have a specific name?

[MartinHanak]

Again ... I wrote my replay in Internet Explorer and ... entered text disappeared.

So I have to remember that Lithium powered PTC Community web does not work in IE anymore !!!

If you can't find reconfigure

then uninstall/install Creo.

During installation do not enter Product code and ... in License Identification dialog box in License Summary section enter path to saved license file into Source field.

Hello,

You can also simply run setup.exe (from the folder you installed Creo) and select reconfigure existing software in the first tab. This will do the exact same thing as reconfigure.exe, but for all the software parts (Parametric, Direct, Layout...).

Thanks,

Alex

Thanks guys!

However it does not work. I also typed in the academic license key but it won't accept the key, that's so odd...

Hi,

please upload license file mentioned in original text. I will check its contents and let you know, what to do (I hope).

Hi,

your license file contains following comment lines

######### Creo Parametric Schools Standard #########
#Feature Line Type = INCREMENT
#Feature Name = CREOPMA_SchoolSTD3
#Feature Version = 36.0
#Version = Creo 5.0

They tell you that license file enables you to run all Creo releases up to 5.0.

License file does not contain code that would allow you to launch Creo 6.0.

My suggestion:

1.] uninstall Creo 6.0

2.] move all files from C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing directory to another directory to get empty C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing directory

3.] install Creo 6.0 ... use correct Product code, see below

K-12 students can use Product code BE600908EDSTUDENTEDK12
University students can use Product code BK600908EDSTUDENTEDUNI

Setup.exe -> Reconfigure software

Yes, that did it finally - thank you
