Autocad Workgroup Manager - Cache location

[davehaigh]

Can I reset the cache location for the autocad workgroup manager like we do with Creo Parametric?

set PTC_WF_ROOT=%USERPROFILE%\pro\creo_2_home\cache\no_pdm_cache\PTC\ProENGINEER

What's the default location? In %APPDATA%?

Is there a working directory associated with this workgroup manager?

Yes you can redefine the cache. You may want to look at the WGM documents there are more environment variable you may consider redefining. I would suggest a startup script that redefines the following variables listed below. The path used includes the username of the windows logon session to avoid having multiple uses logging into one PC being active in the same cache location.

You may need to delete the old cache as it can cause issues at times.

PTC_WF_ROOT
PTC_WLD_ROOT
PTC_WGM_ROOT
PTC_VFS_ROOT
PTC_WF_CACHE
PTC_WGM_STARTUP_DIR
set VC_LOG_DIR
