However, I&rsquo;m not sure if this is related, but I&rsquo;ve been unable to open some of my previously saved project files. Whenever I try, I get an error saying they are &#8220;not ANSYS Project files.&#8221;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I also attempted to open the files using the previous version of HFSS, but the issue persists. I can&rsquo;t access my saved projects, let alone the simulated results.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&rsquo;ve attached a few error screenshots for reference. Could anyone please help me identify the cause or provide a solution?&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you in advance for your support!&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/27-01-2025-1737982104-HFSS_E2.png\" alt=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/27-01-2025-1737982119-HFSS_E1.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/>&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-407191","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-ansys-hfss","topic-tag-error","topic-tag-simulation"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_forum_id":["27793"],"_bbp_topic_id":["407191"],"_bbp_subscription":["507707","28551"],"_bbp_author_ip":["137.121.199.100"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["407404"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["407404"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2025-01-28 13:59:45"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":["0"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_engagement":["507707","28551"],"_btv_view_count":["378"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"]},"test":"jibran-zahoor-pandituniv-eiffel-fr"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/407191","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\/407191\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=407191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
