Hello. I'm trying to use ansys HFSS but I got this message when I open the software. HFSS wasn't in my machine untill a couple months ago, I downloaded It with Maxwell, slwave, Q3D extractor, It came the ensemble. And the only software I was using was maxwell, which initially I had license problems because the license was to recent and my software version is a little bit older as you can see in the print. To solve It was rewriten in another way the things that was already there. And It wasn't me that solved the problem, so I don't know how to solve it now and I don't know if it is the same problem. Sorry for the poor english.

Hello Flavio, 
-18 error suggests that the license server system does not support this feature. Some license features have been updated with the latest versions.

Is there a specific reason not to upgrade to the latest version?
Ansys supports applications 2020R1 and higher application versions.
You can download the latest versions from: https://download.ansys.com/Current%20Release

The software I have here is old because it was bought almost 10 years ago. I think the license don't give acess to the latest version. So I'm trying to make it work.

Greetings, 

Can you possibly share the license key?
