Config.pro Invalid Options

Config.pro Invalid Options

I noticed today that my config.pro file has sent a ton options as invalid options. It appears to be the same 8-10 repeating over and over again. I don't seem to be able to delete any of them. Is there a way to "start fresh" or will I need to go into notepad to take care of these?

 

It should also be noted that we are a small company and do not have a CAD Administrator to handle these types of issues.

Yes, just use any text editor to edit the file.  I can help if you want to attach it (as a zip file).

Thanks Tom. I appreciate the offer but the Notepad "replace all" feature made short work of it.

There was a glitch a few releases ago that when you saved the config.pro in Creo, it would basically put a whole other copy of all the lines at the bottom of your config. It really looks like this is *one* of your problems also. 

You may want to take a little time occasionally and go thru and delete out all the duplicate lines. It isn't necessarily a problem unless you edit it on day and you don't edit the last one in the list and your change doesn't happen because it's not the last one.

Not a "fix it now" problem but you might put it on your list of things to fix when you have a minute or 2 to spare.

Yeah I did notice all the duplicate lines when I was in there editing it. I did remove them but it's good to know it's a known issue.

 

Thanks Stephen!
