Question

Upgrading from Creo 2 to 3 should I delete the .wf folder?

Just that.

We're upgrading right now and I need to know if we'll need a script to delete the .wf folder from all user workstations.

That should be safe to leave alone when doing a Creo version upgrade since it is the local Windchill cache and Creo files are upward compatible.

When upgrading Windchill versions, then I have my users check-in all files, delete all workspaces and remove the cache folders from their hard drives.

We're doing both. I did launch once with a local Creo Parametric install and didn't see any errors but I want to test again with the network install all users will be on. Of course, I can't even get Creo 3.0 working due to the Creo Agent issue (CS180521) on a network install. Can't even find the executable yet and can't get the .msi to create it anywhere.
