In the folder of VS2012 program, can you find "visual studio tools"? In it there is visual studio x64 win64 command, open it ,and copy the fluent path ,paste in it, open fluent in it.

add "C:\Windows\System32" to your path variables

I had the same question with you. And after I set all these environment variables and restart my system it worked well. Thank you.

This is common because the version of visual studio you have installed is not supported by Fluent. But you can solve it by modify the udf.bat file as follows:

1) Run Fluent Launcher, and get the path of udf.bat from Environment table, for example:

D:\ANSYS Inc\v180\fluent\ntbin\win64\udf.bat

2) Open the udf.bat using notepad or other text file editor.

3) Add new lines for your visual studio version, for example vs2017(vc141):

...
echo trying to find MS C compiler, version 141....
set MSVC_DEFAULT=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\VC\Auxiliary\Build
if exist "%MSVC_DEFAULT%\vcvarsall.bat" set MSVC=%MSVC_DEFAULT%
if not "%MSVC%" == "" goto msvc_env141
...
:msvc_env141
set MSVC_VERSION=141
call "%MSVC%\vcvarsall.bat" x86_amd64
goto ms_c_end
...

"..." means other file contents

This modification will help Fluent to find where is the vcvarsall.bat.

4) Save file and run fluent.

You do not need to modify any system environment variable.

Hi Christina,
I got an error very similar to yours. Did you fix it? I appreciate it if you share your remedy.
Thanks.
