Generating or Updating Licenses
After you have received an e-mail from PTC with the Sales Order Number (SON) or product codes for your software order, generate or update licenses using PTC Installation Assistant as follows:
1. Start the Assistant. The Welcome screen appears.
2. Select either Setup license or Install or add new software depending on the tasks you want to perform:
◦ Setup license generates or installs licenses.
◦ Install or add new software performs license generation or identification tasks after which you can install the software.
3. Click Next. The Sign Software License Agreement screen appears.
4. Read and accept the software license agreement and click the check box at the bottom of the screen to accept the export agreement.
5. Click Next. The License Identification screen appears. The License Summary area shows the available license sources installed using the Assistant or the licenses found on the computer. The license availability is shown in the Status column.
6. Click Skip Licensing if you want to proceed with the installation without providing the licensing information. You can provide the licensing information at a later stage by re-running the PTC Installation Assistant.
| If you click Skip Licensing, the Command Configuration tabbed page on the Application Custom Setting dialog box is not available during customizing Creo Schematics. You can add, edit, or delete a license configuration using the Command Configuration tabbed page on the Application Custom Setting dialog box. |
7. The complete path of the license file appears in the Source column of the License Summary area. This area displays all license files or license servers available for use on your computer.
8. To add or remove license files or license servers, click one of the following buttons in the License Summary area:
◦ 
—Adds a license file or a license server. Type the license file name or the server name in the
Source text box. The status of availability of the license source appears in the
Status column. If you have received a license file via e-mail, drag and drop the
<license.dat> file into an empty text box instead of typing the license file name.
◦ 
—Removes an existing license file or license server.
