Question

WWGM change defaults in Windchill

When the Windchill Workgroup Manager was installed with Windchill various choices were made. Now that we have developed a silent installer we are delivering via LANDesk, it appears some of the choices they made when installing it were not what we want.

Is there some way of changing these choices either by editing the files output from Windchill for the silent install, or by editing what's in Windchill itself?

Specifically we'd like it not to try to auto register apps.

Hi David,

Can you please let me know:

1. Windchill version

2. CAD Applications that you are mentioning above which has issue with registration

3. What are the choices that you are expecting to be editable/changed?

Based on provided information, I can try to provide you information.

Regards,

Pankaj Mooteri

Attached is the appregistry.xml from a new install on an empty machine.

the xml tries to register Mathcad 14 and we get the error that is shown in the attached Mathcad 14 error login.jpg

If I delete the appregistry.xml  file then we get the prime-error.png  attached.

If we apply the registry keys in the attached MathCAD Prime 1.0.txt file, then the errors go away.

However not all our users using the WGM have mathcad Prime installed.

I’d rather have another solution for this problem.
