ANSYS 2024 R2 Student License Manager Error

  None of the ANSYS Student 2024 R2 product works for me. Browsed through the forum and noticed a number of us are having the same issue. Appreciate if anyone can help to resolve this.
  - Workbench - Error with unknown reasons
  - Mechanical - Unknown error, can only use in read-only mode
  - Discovery - License Manager Error, can only use in read-only mode
  - Space Claim - License Manager Error, can only use in read-only mode
  What I've tried:
  - Installed with admin access. Uninstalled and re-installed multiple times and it still didn't work.
  - Installation package downloaded from the correct source (https://www.ansys.com/academic/students/ansys-student). Deleted old package and re-download didn't help either.
  - I've checked and delete the 'ansyslmd.ini' in the licensing folder.

  Hi Rajeshwari,
  I started Workbench/Discovery a few times but I don't see any error log generated immediately. Anyway, here are some error logs recorded yesterday for AnsysWBU and Discovery:

  Seems like something is wrong with the free student license, here is the error message from Fluent:

  Could anyone from Ansys provide an update on the student license issue? There are several threads discussing this problem, but so far, there hasn't been a solution from Ansys.
