Tip: Updating the Instance Index File
Whenever you move a generic model from one directory to another using operating system commands, update the instance index file by clicking File > Manage Session > Update Index in the source and destination directories. This ensures that the instances of that generic can be retrieved from their new directory.
* 
Do not edit an instance index file from outside Creo Parametric. Creo Parametric does not recognize the file if it is edited outside of the application.
