[MichaelDouglas]

I can not seem to find the purge command in Creo. In Wildfire you could do it thru a cmd window but it doesn't seem to work anymore. thoughts?

That link helped me too. You need to add the path to the PTC bin folder to your windows path statement. I also had trouble a couple of DLL files which I copied to the windows folder. I only found them because I was having errors with several PTC command window executables (font related). There was also discussion of making the PTC folder shareable.

Kinda silly that this hasn't been built into the ribbon, much less left out of the install routine.

Michael,

open Command Prompt window and enter PATH command. You will see the content of PATH variable. To be able to run purge.bat, you have to ensure, that PATH variable contains the path to bin subdirectory in Creo installation (on my PC it is G:\usr_wpx\Creo1_M040\Parametric\bin and G:\usr_wpx\Creo2_M010\Creo 2.0\Parametric\bin).

Hi

Thank you Vladimir

I had missed one thing;

That is:-

Open System window is not available by default in quick access toolbar or in ribbon;But is available in all commands

We can add this to quick access tollbar. And can use this as we used in Pro-e Windfire.
