Error – Insufficient HPC licenses available – at solving_Student version

      Hello, my name is Tent Vlad and I am PhD student.

      I downloaded step by step the latest free student Ansys version (from Ansys platform) and I tried to make a model analysis, but I had the following error at solving: 

      ANSYS LICENSE MANAGER ERROR:
       Insufficient FlexNet Publisher (FNP) license count of HPC Parallel are available for use, only 4 of the requested 16 tasks were available.

       *** ERROR - Insufficient HPC licenses available.
      whybad=          -4

       Could someone help me what could be the problem? 

      Thank you in advance!

      Please select only 4 cores rather than 16. Ansys Student version only includes 4 cores.

      I ran multiple models, without any problem. I'm using the same model now and it won't even start running. I got this same error message. Where can I adjust the amount of cores used?

      See this screenshot for the processes. Set to 4.
