Screen locks up

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I have to use CFdesign 2011 (SORRY) for specific reasons on this particular project.

Licensing is fine.

Workstation is fine.

Out of nowhere (seriously, no change in system, no updates, no new software install, system is not even connected to the web) this happens as of yesterday and is a consistent bug:

Open CFdesign

Open any existing design study

It loads...then FREEZES as the output bard display's last line is "License Check Completed"

It then is locked up and "Not Responding", no matter how many hours I give it a chance to.

In Help>Licensing all licenses are free (UI, Solver, Advanced, Motion, Parasolid, and Solidworks, all node locked to this system)

I have uninstalled, rebooted, and reinstalled the same build successfully but the same problem exists.

The software is totally fine unti you load ANY design study or even start a new one from an examples XT file.

HEEEEEEELLLLP!!!!

TIA!

Hi @Anonymous,

I would like here to check if you were able to solve this issue 🙂 

Apologies for the belated response. 

I want to see if the issue is related to the model or to the software version itself. 

I suggest that you copy the project and try migrating it into a new version of CFD. In case where you can open it without issues, then the problem is in the old version 2011. If not, then we need to see what is causing the file to crash when trying to load the model.

Thanks,

Amal
