  I have modified the usermat.F and compiled it with the fortran compiler, so I got the ANSYS.exe
  However, when I try to open it, a series of errors about missing mpi and cuda stuff pops up like this
  
  I have reinstalled, it is still the same. I have tried executing with admi privileges, still the same.
  So I dug up all those dlls from the bin folder of ansys and pasted them into the folder. Then it just says this.
  
  I have genuinely no idea what to do with this. Any help would be appreciated.
  
  Using windows 11, visual studio 2022, intel oneapi for fortran compiling.

  How are you starting ANSYS MAPDL to use the custom ansys.exe?
  Please refer to section 1.11 "Compiling and Linking UPFs on Windows Systems"
  End of section 1.11.3 discusses how to launch.

    I am using the intel fortran compiler to compile the anscust, which then gives me the ansys.exe. Then i directly run it. Is there anything else I am supposed to do?
