      I would recommend to use HFSS/AEDT outside of the Workbench unless you really need Workbench for some unique functionalities.n

      When double click on Geometry in workbench, AEDT cannot be launched. When launched AEDT alone, it come out with error : feature has expired. flexnet error -147, -10. However, the license is still valid. The version using now is 2019.R3n

      Hi!n Thank you for your response. Finally we can open AEDT. This happen because of we used expired licenses key. After change to a new license key the software can be opened.nn
