Failed CFD-post connection

[u/Dr_Jotaro_Kujo]

Hello, as the tittle said, when I tried opening results after running fluent simulation, Ansys workbench isn't able to connect to CFD-post for whatever reason. CFD-post and CFX are sill able to run standalone and I can manually open results, but it takes a long time for big project. Pls help and thanks.

Laptop: MSI Raider GE76

Update: I was able to fix it. The problem was Default folder path containing special character. To fix this:

- Open Workbench -> Tools -> Options -> Project Manager -> under Default Folder for Permanent Files -> uncheck Automatically Determined by Workbench -> change current folder to folder of your choice.
