creo is creashing after assembling part from public lybrary

[cero]

So in creo 4.0 I was downloading some normalized parts from libraries and now in Creo 6, It says that parts are created with commercial version of creo and creo crashes. Its not allowed anymore in newer versions to use these parts or Its some different problem?

Hello,

Sadly the library items got converted from neutral format to commercial format and the Student license can't open any commercial formats.

There are 2 ways of solving this: 

1. Use the Library from the older Creo 4.0 edition

2. Simply reconfigure Creo 6.0 to use the Schools Standard configuration (this has the same functionality as Student). This means:

A. On your computer go to: C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing and remove all the licenses you find there (you can simply more the content to another folder and keep it for back up)

B. Run setup.exe, choose reconfigure existing software

C. Insert the product code: BE600908EDSTUDENTEDK12 and use your credentials to license the computer

D. Finish the reconfiguration and enjoy!

Thanks,
Alex
