I was using the Ansys Electronics Desktop for the past 2 months and the program was working perfectly fine. A few days ago, I wanted to try the Ansys Simplorer program and so I closed the Ansys Electronics Desktop and went to the Simplorer program. For some reason, it gave me an error stating something about gui and maybe license. I don&#8217;t remember what that error was but I remember there were some features that were grayed out so I assumed maybe our license didn&#8217;t cover those features. Afterwards, I wanted to go back to the Ansys Electronics Desktop and continue my work on there, and so I closed the Simplorer program. However, when I went back to the Ansys Electronics Desktop program, it wouldn&#8217;t even open up. I closed the related programs on the task manager to ensure I didn&#8217;t have 2 Ansys programs running at the same time (bc I know that can cause issues too). The Ansys Electronics Desktop program still isn&#8217;t opening up and I am not sure why considering the fact that I was able to use it for the past 2 months. I have attached pictures of the errors I am seeing. I would appreciate potential solutions. I did see some suggestions about changing the port number, but I couldn&#8217;t locate the license.dat files and I didn&#8217;t want to make that change without getting assistance\/feedback from someone more technically verse with the program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Thank You<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/attachments\/776e1892-0efa-46ce-bde8-a9820152113b\/00d4393f-dea3-4038-9d58-a98201594180_ansys-electronics-desktop-error.jpg?width=690&amp;upscale=false\" alt=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/attachments\/776e1892-0efa-46ce-bde8-a9820152113b\/4862626f-ec23-4a55-97db-a9820159d0c3_anslic-admin-license-diagnostic.jpg?width=690&amp;upscale=false\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-31078","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_old_topic_id":["3250"],"_bbp_old_topic_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_topic_anonymous_id":["false"],"_bbp_old_closed_status_id":["publish"],"_bbp_author_ip":[null],"_bbp_old_sticky_status_id":["normal"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0","0","0","0","0"],"_btv_view_count":["1418"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["31078"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_engagement":["157480","159799"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["15"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["68884"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["68884"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2018-11-08 19:17:33"]},"test":"hgar96"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/31078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/31078\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
