In this step, you will modify the Creo section of the registry file so that it contains an executable name entry.

If you cannot find the Creo section inside the Settings Editor, you may need to contact Customer Support to verify that you are licensed for this option or it is enabled in your LMS license or portlock. To contact Customer Support, follow this link: http://hexagonmi.com/contact-us
