Reply To: Question Regarding ANSYS Mechanical APDL License Upgrade

[Mrunali Barde]

Hello there,

The installation is different for students and commercial packages. 

You might need to install separate packages as well.

Students version is usually installed under 'C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\ANSYS Student' whereas for Commercial you it is in 'C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc'. 

If you wish to upgrade to the full version, I suggest reinstalling the full package as an admin. 

I hope this helps, 

Mrunali.
