- If the Workspace or Server entries are changed (eg. change of active Workspace or go offline, no server), the changes in registry is now applied to all running sessions of Creo that are using the same cache directories
- Change in one connected session of Creo Parametric, changes all other opened sessions that are using the same cache directories
- Unable to use different workspaces while concurrently running multiple Creo Parametric sessions while connected to the same Windchill PDMLink
- Register server in one Creo session, the server will be auto registered when starting another Creo session
