I run into an error when I try to open the model to mesh the part. After I import the geometry and click on model I get an error saying &#8220;unable to start the mechanical editor&#8221;. I know anti-virus software has caused issues before, so I do not have that installed currently. I have read that possibly re-installing Ansys will fix it or going into the %AppData% folder and renaming v191 to &#8220;v191_old&#8221; will do the trick. I am hoping someone can give me some insight on the best way to fix this. Thanks.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I have attached a screenshot of the error I am getting.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Regards,<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Mark<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-34783","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_old_topic_id":["6955"],"_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"],"_btv_view_count":["3366"],"_bbp_subscription":["239868"],"_edit_lock":["1658240284:76739"],"_edit_last":["76739"],"_wp_old_slug":["unable-to-start-mechanical-editor-in-ansys-19-1-solved"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["34783"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_engagement":["15883","68381","134666","157443","157480","164611","165961"],"_bbp_voice_count":["7"],"_bbp_reply_count":["14"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["147168"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["147168"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2021-03-19 14:52:44"]},"test":"markh"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/34783","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\/34783\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34783"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
