Open ANSYS12.0 Workbench Project on another computer

Andrew · June 29, 2010, 01:24

Hi Everyone,

My company has upgraded to ANSYS12.0. I am running Fluent 12 through the workbench setup.

When I save the project and copy the files to another computer, I cannot open the current project. It seems that it cannot find the data file.

I think the error has to do with the extension folder. For example, I saved the project on D: on one computer. Now I copied the files to another computer on C:. But when I try to open the project, it is looking for D: extension.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks

Andrew

Hi bob12,

Thanks for your help. That is a good idea and worked well.

I think it is important to remember to export the case/data files in fluent before saving the project in workbench, so it can open on other computers.

Regards

Andrew
