Vinoth,

you have to modify environment variable PATH and add a path similar to the following one at the end of definition:

C:\PTC\Creo 2.0\Parametric\bin

[vinoth]

sorry martin

i cant able to understand your point.

[MartinHanak]

Vinoth,

find someone in your neighbourhood, how can manage your PC and ask him for a help.

You can also use GOOGLE to find out "How to set PATH variable in Windows"

Martin Hanak

[vinoth]

environment variables i have more then 8 path for ptc which one i have to change

all paths are starting as

C:/PTC/MKSTOO~1/ like this

[MartinHanak]

Vinoth,

you have to modify Windows environment variable named PATH. Please use GOOGLE and study the meaning of Windows environment variable named PATH.

Hi,

if you have problems with purge.bat then I suggest you to download Spekan Purge Utility from http://www.prousercarolinas.org/tips/utilities.htm

Hello Vinoth Kumar,

Please Try Simple steps as maintained by Martin, Sure it will resolve.

Please refer below tips for the same.

Variable

Step One  : Set System Variable PATH :C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\M020\Parametric\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32

Step Two : Creo Configuration : Terminal Command & value will be: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

By this two steps purge command defiantly work, not needed edit the Purge.bat file.

Hi all,

I know really good the problem with purge command .

If you use 32bit platform - everything is OK.

But if you use 64bit platform - sometimes do you need to set corect PATH (environment variable PATH - Thanks Martin Hanak ) only and sometimes do you need to change purge.bat file too.

Question is - where is the problem? - answer is - system does not recognise your corect platform (64bit)

Here is the solution for you:

You can edit purge.bat file and set/fix variable from:

@echo off

set MC=unset

if "%PROCESSOR%" == "INTEL_64" set MC=ia64_nt

if "%PROCESSOR%" == "INTEL_486" set MC=i486_nt

if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "IA64" set MC=ia64_nt

if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "AMD64" set MC=x86e_win64

if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "x86" set MC=i486_nt

if not "%MC%" == "unset" goto mc_done

echo ERROR Cannot detect what machine type you have.

echo Please make one of the following settings:

echo.

echo set PROCESSOR=INTEL_486 - For Windows NT Intel based machines.

echo.

echo set PROCESSOR=INTEL_64 - For Windows Intel Itanium based machines.

echo.

exit

:mc_done

set PRO_MACHINE_TYPE=%MC%

.

.

.

To:

@echo off

set MC=x86e_win64

set PRO_MACHINE_TYPE=%MC%

.

.

.

In the attachment you can find my (modified) purge.bat file for Windows XP 64bit

Vladimir

Hi Vladmir

what i have to do with your attachment, please explain me more detailed.

Thanks,

Vinoth

[VladimirPalffy]

Hi Vinoth,

Download purge.bat file and then Replace original file in ProE/Creo folder (....instalation folder\bin\purge.bat)

For example: D:\ptc\proeWF5\bin\purge.bat

Vladimir

Dear Vadimir Palffy

I have a problem with purge command at Creo 2.0 (M040)

When I kick at Utilities-> Open system window -> this windows immediately out.

At Creo message log is (Logout of process to leave Operating System)

Please help me.

thanks so much!

[VladimirPalffy]

Dear Dien,

The message "Logout of process to leave Operating System" - means - that system has closed the command window in the Creo.

Can you try to use the purge command with mapkeys? - I have created the mapkey for you "key sequence is pu in the Creo - see the attachment (copy mapkey to your confic.pro file)

Best Regards,

Vladimir

I have the same problem with the DOS window shutting down instantly. I can work around for purge, but I don't have any other way to edit a repeat region on a table. I would like to find out why the DOs window crashes right away?

[VladimirPalffy]

Hi,

it is very hard simulate your problem, but... try to start Creo/ProE without config.pro file - default setup for Creo session.

My question is - why do you need to open DOS window for repeat region? If you select Repeat region - system open popup window for you?

Regards,

Vladimir
