Unable to export FEM file in HYPERMESH.

I'm trying to use HYPERMESH to export a FEM file for use in Optistruct, but it fails even if I follow the tutorial. In the tutorial, the Solver console appears to open automatically after exporting, but the console does not open automatically. There is no error message, it is simply that the FEM file has not been created. Please let me know if there is a possible cause.

    Is your Hypermesh able to create/write any kind of file? (hm file, for example). Or does it fail in more writing processes?

    If yes, it might be file / write / execute permissions.

    Thank you for your reply.
    It is possible to save as an hm file, and STEP and STL geometry files can be exported without any problems.

    are you writting to a folder where you have permission?

    Could you share the .hm file to check if there's anything wrong on the model? (sometimes you're missing a loadstep, for example)
