Hi Please help! Every time I try to access ansys mechanical It does not open and shows this error. I am not sure why. I have uninstalled and reinstalled a few times now but still the same issue. It used to work fine before.

I've just posted the response below in the above thread

 

 

Try this.

Make sure all ANSYS applications are closed, then try registering the DLL's by starting a Command Prompt with "run as administrator" ,  and issuing the following commands

regsvr32.exe ole32.dll

regsvr32.exe atl.dll

regsvr32.exe oleaut32.dll

regsvr32.exe scrrun.dll

regsvr32.exe jscript.dll

regsvr32.exe vbscript.dll

 

All must say successful.

 

Then, open up a regular Command Prompt , do not "run as administrator", and issue the following command

move "%appdata%ansys" "%appdata%ansys.old"

 

Thanks,

Win

Hi! Thank you so much for your reply. After running command prompt as administrator and writing in all the commands I tried the second step but I'm not sure in what syntax do I need to write the %appdata...command. Please guide me a little for this. thanks again.

you missed the 'move' command in the front, it must be exactly this

 

move "%appdata%ansys" "%appdata%ansys.old"
