Hello oshooaipe2020,
I believe it could be a faulty installation. Did you get a chance to reinstall applications or check if standalone applications are working? Are you using a student version or a commercial?
Can you please try to install a fresh setup of fluids or structures package and let me know?
Reinstall the application as administrator & delete configuration files:
Uninstall Ansys package as administrator.
Rename ‘ %temp%\.ansys’ to ‘‘ %temp%\.ansys.old’
Rename ‘AppData\Roaming\Ansys’ to ‘AppData\Roaming\Ansys.old’
Rename ‘Documents\Ansoft’ to ‘Documents\Ansoft.old’ (if any)
Download then install the Ansys product-specific package as required as administrator.
I hope this helps.
Wishes,
Mrunali.

I just discovered the installation is taking up my storage but the app is not installed just in the extracted folder
