      Make sure the Graphics driver for the Nvidia card is up to date.
      Also, I would change it to use the Nvidia Card as the default Graphics processor for all

      The graphics driver for the Nvidia card has been updated. The graphics processor has also been set as default for all the ANSYS tools.
      The same error shows up,
      Graphics not available. See Discovery installation guide for details.

      I just downloaded the drivers from the manufacturer's website, now Discovery R21 is working out.
      The driver update from the device manager and windows update was not enough.
      Thank you for your help!
