      Continually running into this error when launching fluent, can launch from the workbench with no issues but not on it owns. Following error:

      Connected License Server List:

       

      Unexpected license problem; exiting.

       

      Hit return to exit.

       

      Also, when running CFD-Post I get this error:

      So far I have tried unintsalling and redownloading the entire package, unconfiguring and reconfiguring using Productconfig.exe

       

      I am out of ideas.

      After uninstalling, did you remove the directory
      c:\Program Files\Ansys Inc\
      Try the following:
      Uninstall, rename c:\Program Files\Ansys Inc to c:\Program Files\Ansys_Old
      Reinstall.

      I tried it that way and the application opened fine the first time but now it has gone back to showing the error and failing to launch

      Try the following:

      rename the v242 directory that is under:
      %APPDATA%\Ansys

      to v242.old

      now try to run.
      If that doesn't work, check firewall software. Try disabling it for a test. then try to run.
      Check firewall logs to see if it is blocking the program from checking out a license.
