Hello.

I've recently tried to make an static analysis from HyperMesh to OptiStruct but there is an error which says "Optistruct is not installed currently". So, I installed the mechanical solver from OptiStruct but the error does not disappeared . Should I uninstall and install again HyperWorks? Or is there an other way to connect OptiStruct with HyperMesh?  

I have the complete HyperWorks 2021 version. 

Regards.

    For installing HyperWorks package, you must use the master Installer (hw2021_win64.exe) and keep all the other installers in the same folder.

     

    You have probably installed them one by one, thus they got disconnected.

    Please use the master installer to get them all installed.

    I just look for hw2021.1_win64.exe in the Marketplace, but the only installer I found is hwDesktop2021.1. I don´t know the place where I can found that other installer. 

     

    Sorry to answer late.

    Have you sorted out the problem cause I am facing the same problem since two days and worst of all I am unable to see hyperworks desktop application even though I installed the student edition bundle.

    Hi Sokratis,

    As mentioned by Adriano, you need to have the Master installer (see the image). You should have below 3 .exe files at one place and then do the installation.
