The Creo config.pro configuration file is used to automatically set Creo configuration options at startup. A config.pro configuration file can be used with the Creo View Adapter for Creo Parametric, but it must be located in the <setup_directory>. This is because proepublish, proebatch, and proeworker scripts all open Creo from the <setup_directory>. This is also why the trail.txt and log files are in this directory.

Creo Parametric configuration can be managed from Windchill and delivered to each worker as a part of job payload. You can manage config.pro, config.sup, and different library files, like pen tables files, fonts, drawing templates, and others. You need to package these in a specific order in a zip file, name the zip file as PROE_Configuration.zip and upload it to Windchill Visualization configuration administration under site/organization/product utilities. For more information, see Serververwaltete CAD-Konfiguration in the Windchill Help Center.
