  Using the student software/license, I've been able to model and mesh my part but once I try to open the setup step fluent crashes. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. I've tried making the mesh more coarse. I've tried making the part in design modeler and importing from solidworks. I've tried importing a saved mesh and making the mesh in ansys. I've tried running fluent from workbench and from the fluent launcher. Everything I've tried has yielded the same result. See image for error message. My professor hasn't been able to figure out the problem either.
