  • PTC/SetupThis file is required to run PTC/Setup from an existing CD or CD Image.  When available, download the files and follow the Instructions for PTC/Setup below.
  • Windchill Workgroup Manager for Pro/ENGINEER 2001
    • Pro/ENGINEER Software UpdateTo allow both the ability to start Pro/ENGINEER 2001 from a Windchill Workgroup Workspace and open Pro/ENGINEER models from a Workspace, a new build of Pro/ENGINEER must be installed.  This build is Pro/ENGINEER Datecode 2003441 or later.  Therefore, when this build becomes available, it is recommended that a new installation be performed. If you install this new Datecode you DO NOT need to apply the NMSD fix.
    • NMSD - This update will allow Pro/ENGINEER 2001 to start from a Windchill Workgroup Manager for Pro/ENGINEER 2001 Workspace.  This downloadable patch will replace the current NMSD file in your Pro/ENGINEER installation.  This option is available if an update of Pro/ENGINEER is not possible.  Please follow the instructions listed for appropriate release of Pro/ENGINEER at the location listed below.
    • Windchill Workgroup Manager for Pro/ENGINEER File Adapter DLL – This Temporary Patch is required to allow for successful upload and download using the Workgroup Manager for Pro/ENGINEER 2001 (6.2.2.03 and greater). When available, download this new file and follow the instructions for the “Windchill Workgroup Manager for Pro/ENGINEER File Adapter DLL” below. 
  • Windchill Visualization Service (WVS)
    • NMSD - The Pro/ENGINEER software that is being accessed by the Windchill Visualization Service CAD Worker must have the new NMSD file applied or must be upgraded to Pro/ENGINEER 2001 Datecode 2003441 (or later).
    • Windchill Workgroup Manager for Pro/ENGINEER File Adapter DLL – If your Windchill system is configured with File Synchronization (6.2.2.03 and greater) this temporary patch is required to enable proper Pro/ENGINEER viewable generation.   This also applies to a Windchill system configured with the Pro/INTRALINK Gateway.
