      This issue was there in ANSYS Workbench 14.5.x and resolved in next release. ** If this issue is faced in other ANSYS versions, same solutions can be used.** Here is a workaround that should allow the saving of the project: 1. Ensure all component windows (Mechanical, FEModeler, DesignModeler, etc.) are closed and that only the main Workbench window is open 2. Open a task manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) 3. Switch to the ‘Processes’ tab 4. Look for ‘AnsysWBU.exe’ process 5. Be sure they are not associated with an active instance of a Workbench component (see step 1) 6. Right-click on the process/processes and choose ‘End Process’ 7. Go back to Workbench and attempt to save your project 8: No attempt should be made to end any processes named ansysfww.exe
