Is there a way to install creo 9 to 22 network pcs for students?
I have the latest from https://www.ptc.com/en/products/education/free-software/k12-educator/thank-you but it seems I would need to manually install this on all the pcs
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi,
if you use instructions from https://apps.ptc.com/schools/references/install_creo9_schools_standard.pdf document then every student must have local installation because he/she receives license file related to his computer. License file is generated for specific MAC address of network card contains locked license.
If you go to https://www.ptc.com/en/academic-program/products/free-software/lab-educator page and register, then you will receive PREMIUM LAB PRODUCT CODE (I hope so). This code enables you to get license file containing a requested quantity of floating licenses. In this case you must install FLEXnet license manager on server. You can also install Creo on server. On user computers you can map network drive to provide access to server Creo installation. Unfortunately, PTC does not provide detailed instructions on how to perform such an installation.
