Hello mhar,

 

I am sorry to hear that my last suggestion did not solve the issue. Please try the following common troubleshooting procedures:

 

1. Check your file path name for special characters.

It is recommended to avoid unusual special characters. For example, dashes "-" can be used, but degrees "°" and local language characters like "à" are not suggested.

 

2. Check the file path's length.

Take care for the length, as the full path should be shorter than 248 characters.

 

3. Reboot your machine.

If you haven't done so in a while, try rebooting your machine.

 

4. Check for overlapping processes.

If you are running the analysis on your local machine and are facing execution issues, make sure that the project directory is not frequently updated by some other process.

For example, working on project files on active cloud storage directories may interfere with the software. Try working on a local directory and store a copy on network storage when you finish your work.

 

5. Clear temporary Ansys files.

In Windows Explorer in the Address bar type: %temp%.

Rename the .ansys folder

Start a new Workbench session.

 

6. Update GPU drivers

Make sure that you have the latest graphics cards drivers. If that's not the case, update to the most recent ones.

 

7. Uninstalling and re-installing with admin rights.

 

Best regards,
Tasos
