  I am currently working on my masters thesis and my supervisor has sent me a workbench zip file which he created using the 2023R1 version. I have 2023R2 and 2022R1 downloaded on my computer fomr previous projects however I was unable to open the fluent setup or solution using those. My uni have since granted me access to 2023R1 via appsanywhere and a vpn, however when I open fluent after a couple minutes of waiting I am given the error "The fluent application failed to validate the connection."
  I have tried using both of these paths and have also tried changing the number of solver processes as other posts suggest.
