Creo 2.0-m010 available

I noticed today that m010 is available. Unfortunately the update adviser currently doesn't have a listing of what's fixed in m010.

Yes, I saw it yesterday and downloaded it. Now I can not uninstall creo2 f000 - getting ERROR, unable to run the uninstaller. Anybody run in to this?

F000 was not able to be uninstalled you have to delete the folders. This was why they released a F001 date code.

Actually, there is a very simply procedure that will allow you to uninstall it. See

When I click on the link that Tom provided I get Error: this article does not exist?

Jim,

I received the same error as you but once I logged into the knowledgebase and did a CREO search (keyword: uninstall), the very first result is that document.And looking at it's URL, it's identical towhat Tom has provided. Strange...

I just used the on-line install for Creo 2.0 M010 and it took hours. I actually left home and found it finished this morning so I don't know how many hours it took. I do know that it was running/installing for at least 4 hours before I left.

I wonder why this is sooooooo slow.
