Hi, 

Is it possible to open and work with a 2019 Hypermesh model on a 2015 Hypermesh license? 

Recently, I cannot open the newer model on the older license because of backward compatibility. 

Thank You! 

 

Sincerely, 
David

    You need a 2019 license to be able to access 2019 (and older) products.

    Hypermesh is not backward compatible either. A 2019 file will only open in 2019 (and newer) Hypermesh.

    You can export the solver deck and import it into any version however as a workaround. You will lose geometry but will have all your fea entities.
