Frequently Asked Questions
Does it run in a virtual machine?
Design work runs in VMs for training; production work wants workstation hardware.
What does Creo Elements mean?
It is the naming generation between Pro/ENGINEER and today’s Creo — file compatibility follows the product line.
Can Pro/E files be opened?
Legacy Pro/ENGINEER models open directly; verify family tables after import.
Is a license dongle required?
Licensing is through PTC channels with floating options.

Tips from Real Projects
A machinery OEM migrating legacy Pro/E data froze the old models read-only and rebuilt only what changed going forward — a clean cut that preserved twenty years of design history without dragging legacy errors into new products.
