Hello there Ansys Team, <\/p>\n

In efforts to install the Student version of Ansys, I have encountered an issue that I was not able to solve. I hope it could be resolved with your help.<\/p>\n

Some background: I recently installed a new hard drive, an HDD, on which I hope to store all of my "heavy" applications. I initialized the drive and titled it the "D" drive. I have done so as the OME "C" drive (an SSD) has reached storage capacity; beyond the minimum required by the Ansys specs. It seems that the new drive is operating nominally. <\/p>\n

When attempting to install Ansys using the install Wizard, I chose the desired directory by changing the default selection from "C" to the "D" drive, but I repeatedly receive the following error " Critical Error" (see attachment). I assume that the error is due to the choice of directory, but I may be wrong. I reached this conclusion as the Ansys requirement list states that "Local C Drive to be present".<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, I am unable to test the install in the "C" drive as it full to the brim with needed software. <\/p>\n

What are my options?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
