Ansys.Fluent.Cortex.CortexNotAvailableException
 

Note: For context, I am using Workbench 2019 R3

Hi all,

I have finished running the calculation and saved the animation and such. I closed fluent and saved the project as well. Then, I came back to open it later and its giving me such error at fluent startup. Now, I'm unable to even enter into fluent. Please help!

WB Error
 

Errors reported in WB are useless for the users; probably for the developers as well. The alternative is to start a Fluent session, outside WB, and then load the case and data files from the WB folder where you saved your project.
