Unable to get working directory

      I want to transfer the forces from the solution of Ansys Maxwell to the Setup of Ansys Mechanical, for which I am using Workbench. I have linked the solution of the Maxwell simulation to the setup of the mechanical simulation. I am getting an error "Unable to get working directory"

      Are you saving your project to a local drive?

      ok can you please share the files window by clicking Workbench>View>Files:

      Do you have enough space available where this is being saved? The error often indicates a full disk occurred at some point or other error with the file system.

      Does this project work on another machine?

      This is the image you were asking for....also I Just check.....I think I have less storage space....should look to clear some storage up

      Will it work if I increase the space available on the disk?

      After trying by shifting the files to a location with an ample amount of space, it still gave the same error. Could you suggest some other ways to troubleshoot or can we try for a short live meeting? it could help me troubleshoot faster.
