Hi all,

 I'm running into the error "The geometry editor was closed abnormally." whenever I try to open SpaceClaim or create a mesh using fluent in workbench. I can open SpaceClaim on its own but not via workbench.

To get around the issue, I created my model in SpaceClaim first and then loaded the file into the geometry cell in workbench. However, I get "The geometry editor was closed abnormally." again when I try to create the mesh and I couldn't work around this one.

I've followed the suggestions on this thread:

/forum/forums/topic/ansys-error-the-geometry-editor-was-closed-abnormally/?order=all#comment-0e426e13-eb7a-48d9-9feb-a9cf013274f6

but non of the suggestions worked.

Any insight into what is causing the issue and potential solutions is greatly appreciated!

Hi again,

 I kept trying things and finally something worked! Here is what worked for me:

"

go to

 

C:Program FilesANSYS IncANSYS Studentv192commonfilesconfigswinx64unconfig

 

then right click on AnsUnconfigSpaceClaim.exe and 'run as administrator'

 

now, go to 

 

C:Program FilesANSYS IncANSYS Studentv192commonfilesconfigswinx64config

 

then right click on AnsConfigSpaceClaim.exe and 'run as administrator'

"

This solution was suggested by @tsiriaks in /forum/forums/topic/spaceclaim-the-geometry-editor-was-closed-abnormally/?order=all#comment-b5bc0c2b-f71f-44f7-943a-a9a60010a557
