      Dear community,


      Attached is the error that I encounter when I start to open the mechanical and geometry editor. May I ask for some suggestions and help with those problems?


      Thank you very much in advance.

      Is the problem you are asking about that there are no tools in the toolbox?


      For the toolbox issue, I assume you have tried a restart on your computer.


      Is the license local to that machine or is there a license server that machine needs to communicate with?

      Hello Peter,


      Yes, I have a problem with the toolbox issue. I have tried to restart on my computer numbers of times but I still have the similar problem.


      I think is a license server that machine needs to communicate with.


      Regards,

      Joseph, 


      Try these steps:



      • Close all open WB sessions.

      • In Run, type %appdata%, this will open the Roaming folder. Open the folder named Ansys.

      • Since you're using version 14.5, look for a folder named v145. Rename it as v145_old.

      • Now open a new WB session, see if this resolves the issue.


      Let us know if that helps, cheers!

      Hi Bsista,


      Thanks for the suggestion. I had tried using other approaches which I reinstall the software (Ansys Workbench 14.5). The problems solved after I reinstall the software.


      Cheers!


      Regards,
