After this issue, the contacts body view windows, which allow for easy viewing of the components involved with a contact, have disappeared entirely. After uninstalling and reinstalling ANSYS R1 2021, Ansys opened on a ghost display once again and the body contact viewers still refuse to show themselves. I am trying to comb through an assembly with over a hundred contacts and not having these windows to manipulate these contacts is making things extremely cumbersome. Has anyone else had an issue similar to this? And is there a way to locate and move these windows, even if they don&#8217;t show up in the windows task bar while ANSYS mechanical says that they are being displayed.
