I am currently setting up Hyperworks on a new Lenovo laptop running Windows 11. When I try to download Hyperworks, the files unpack to 100% and then I am met with a "Fatal Error". I receive a java invocation target exception. I tried installing the java runtime environment on my computer, but the same issue was there. The same issue persists for any additional downloads related to Hyperworks, so it's not isolated to a single download. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello,

    Altair HyperWorks is not yet supported on Windows 11.

    You can try version 2022 which has been reported to install on Windows 11 but this is without any guarantee from Altair.

    Thanks,

    So I am able to download the app, and the install completes to 100% before giving the error message attached. No applications end up installing on my computer. I am trying to install the desktop 2022.1 version. Thanks for the help.
