      Open CMD Prompt and enter the following command


      "%awp_root201%fluentntbinwin64fluent.exe" 3d -g -t0


      does this launch Fluent ?


      Also, do you have install.err file under C:Program FilesANSYS Inc  ? If so, please post its content here.

      Open CMD Prompt, then type


      set


      and post the output of it here


      Also, the install.err is a file, not a folder. For your case, it should be under C:Program FilesANSYS IncANSYS Student

      Dear Win 


      I solved the problem by resting my windows, now everything is working normally except the display of fluent! when I open it, everything is bigger than normal.

      You mean you reinstall the OS ? That's pretty extreme but glad it helps with the issue.


      This looks fine to me but if things are bigger than you expected, it may have something to do with your computer display settings. See if it's at default scale (100%) , also check your display resolution setting.


      Thanks,


      Win

      Yes I reinstall the OS. 


      I changed the  display settings and now it looks very fine. 


      Thank you very much Win
