  Hi.
  I have the 2024 student version of ansys and I am trying to run a fatigue analysis simulation using the Design life add-on but every time I try to solve I get an error telling me "nCode installation folder could not be found. Make sure Ansys Designlife is instaled" (see image).
  Please help...

  That message indicates that Ansys nCode DesignLife is not installed on your system. The Ansys nCode DesignLife embedded Add-On is part of Mechanical. Ansys nCode DesignLife does not need to be installed to see the Add-On inside Mechanical, but it must be installed to access the DesignLife solver.
