Student edition renewal PTC Creo 6.0

[JS_10223622]

Hey, I've got the same problem, but could not fix it with the instructions above. Could someone please help me out? I've already tried changing my password and followed the relicense guide.  I recieved a document saying that my license is renewed (see attachments), but creo still says that my license expires in 14 days.

My Host-ID is E0-0A-F6-5E-38-C5. 

Thank you very much.

Hi,

1.]

New license file you received via email contains license valid up to 24-Feb-2024. Inside the file there is license code which enables you to run Creo up to version 8.0. You can run 6.0, too!

2.]

To "connect" new license file to existing Creo 6.0 installation, please follow this procedure:

• save file to disc drive
  • currently used license file is saved in C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing directory
• go to Parametric\bin sub-directory in Creo installation
• open parametric.psf file in Notepad
• find line starting with ENV=PTC_D_LICENSE_FILE-=
• after equal sign there is the path to currently used license file ... replace it with the path to new license file
• save parametric.psf file
• find line starting with ENV=CREOPMA_FEATURE_NAME=
• the name following equal sign must be included in new license file ... check it
• start Creo

Hi Martin,

thank you very much for your answer. I want to refresh my license for my existing Creo 8.0.4.0 installation, does your instruction work the same for this version? I could not find any Parametric\bin sub-directory...

Best regards

Example:

• Creo installation directory on my PC ... E:\PTC\Creo8_040
• corresponding path to Parametric\bin sub-directory ... E:\PTC\Creo8_040\Creo 8.0.4.0\Parametric\bin

Hi Martin, thank you very much for your respond. Creo works again without asking for any license renewals.
