Start of Ansys failed. Error code: 193

      I am trying to perform a simple Structural Optimization but get the following error: "Start of Ansys failed. Error code: 193"

      The same project solves on other computers, but this error keep showing up on my PC. 

      I found the error in the "topo.err" file along with the warning as shown below:

      Is there someone with experience on this issue?

        Hi Aniket,

        Yes, the Static Structural solves fine but any Structural Optimization does not want to solve. Things I have tried:

        • Restarting my PC
        • Unistalling/installing ANSYS
        • Installing an older version (2022 R2) and run the simulation on the older version
        • Turn Distributed solving off in Mechanical
        • Reduced cores to 1
        • Deleted any temp files

        None of the above worked

      Hi

      As you have created a SR (nr: 1x3x16..etc...) also about this, please continue with that and we will try and help.

      All the best

      Erik
