Fusion 360 CFD Icon missing from ribbon

Hello,

 

Recently changed laptop so had to redownload and install Fusion 360 and CFD onto it. However the CFD icon is no longer available under: Fusion 360 >DesignStudy >  Simulation > Simplify > Tools > CFD . I've read other posts about selecting CFDConfig.exe, doing this shows the CFD launcher is ticked but greyed out so cant select/untick. 

 

Never had issues with Icon not showing on pervious laptop which was running the same version ..... Fusion 360 and CFD (2021).

 

I have tried several reinstalls already of both software with no joy. Both Fusion 360 and CFD will work independently with no other issues, its just that icon which isn't showing.     

 

Any help is appreciated

Before we explore the issue, can you confirm you've performed a clean uninstall? How to perform an automatic clean uninstall of Autodesk ...
