  Hi
  
  I was trying to write the output to files along with transcript files in ANSYS Fluent. It stopped writing to them after a few iterations. I tried reinstalling the software but still, the problem exists. I am using ANSYS 2019 R3 on Dell Xeon(R) 6240 workstation.
  
  Thanks

  Does something happen in the software? Once a transcript etc is started it ought to continue until told to stop.

  I don't see any changes, but the simulation was still going on without any problem. I checked if there are any installation errors but there aren't.

  If it's still running then there's something wrong with the disc (is it full) or the set-up.

  I did check them too.
  
  The disc has a lot of space left
  
  I simulated the same case on a different workstation, it worked fine there.

  Possibly hardware related then, or set-up.

  I couldn't figure out what the error exactly is, I appreciate any input attempting to solve this issue.

  Is it repeatable? Ie does it stop at the same point every time on that machine?

  No, it stops differently everytime.

  I am having the same issue with the report file, animations and macros. It is completely random and I have tried it with 2 different machines. Any advice?
