I downloaded the Hyperworks 2022 Student edition from the confirmation email I recieved from Altair. After completing the installation and license activation, I am able to open HyperWorks but can't seem to find HyperMesh. I am unable to find it even after searching my pc for all apps. I use WIndows 11 currently.

Kindly help with the issue.

    I guess you have 2022.2?, you can launch HM from the HyperWorks launcher: (there is no direct start menu link)

    No, the version is 2022.  And where do I find this launcher?

    ok, 2022, should have direct HM legacy launcher in start menu too, sorry I interpreted your comment that you were 'able to open HyperWorks' as you having got as far as opening this option!

    This should be in your start menu under Altair 2022 (or 2022.2)

    No no you were right the first time. I did open HyperWorks. But there was no such window like the one on your first comment. How do I get to that window?

    That window should be what you get when you open hyperworks (unless you have already opened it previously and checked the 'don't show this again' box, if that is the case (and clicking the HyperWorks shortcut opens HyperWorks directly, you can change client from the dropdown: (in this case I am in HyperMesh and can choose HV, HG etc)

    and you can choose to have the launcher show up again by going to File--> preferences and enabling it here:
