Hello everyone
 
I'm having a problem with ANSYS Workbench and I hope someone can help me resolve it. When trying to open one of my projects, I encounter the following error:
 
Unable to access the source: C:\Users\garga\Desktop\M.I.M\TFM\3. REPORT\Workbench Practices\Practice 4\ANSYS\Model 1. Compact specimen\Prueba_3\Probeta_compacta_espesor_25_files\dp0\SYS\ENGD\EngineeringData.xml
 
 
I've tried several things without success, including:
 
1. Verify that the "EngineeringData.xml" file exists in the specified path.
2. Check the permissions of the folder and make sure I have full access.
3. Move the project to a location with a shorter path and no spaces or special characters.
4. Restart ANSYS Workbench and my computer.
5. Make sure the file isn't locked in the file properties.
 
Despite these attempts, I still can't access the file. I'm using ANSYS 2024 R] on Windows 11.
 
Has anyone faced a similar problem or have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?
 
I appreciate any help you can offer.
 
Thanks in advance!
