      I have been using Ansys student 2023R1 for 4 months. For some days have't opened and one day i opened design modeler, an "ash" coloured Ansys Workbench window openes up with an error message saying

      AnsysWBU.exe encountered a problem. A diagnostic file has been written.

      What should I do?

      I have tried reinstalling several times, tried changing temp file to temp.old

      Please Help.

        Encountering an error message like "AnsysWBU.exe encountered a problem" when opening De is frustrating but presents an opportunity to troubleshoot. Verifying software compatibility, updating drivers, and checking for software conflicts can often resolve such issues. Patience and systematic problem-solving ensure smoother operation and optimized performance.

      Thank you madam.

      For now it is working after I updated Graphics driver and installing latest Ansys version.
