Student Edition 2026 license missing OptiStruct feature

Narun_Science

I generated an Altair Student Edition 2026 license from Altair One. However, the generated local license file does not contain the OptiStruct feature.

I have verified this by:

1. Inspecting the licence file directly
2. HyperMesh reports Error 6 / Error 9 (Feature not found)

OptiStruct 2026 is correctly installed and accessible. This appears to be an incomplete license.

I request that my Student Edition license be reissued with OptiStruct included, or that my entitlement be corrected so I can regenerate the proper license.

The following is the main section of my licence file:
FEATURE HyperViewTrans
FEATURE HyperWorksEDU
FEATURE romAI

There are no optistruct entries



And this is the error code:

THE FOLLOWING ERROR MESSAGE WAS RETRIEVED FROM THE LICENSE SERVER Altair License Manager: License error Feature(s): HyperWorks, HWOptiStructError Code: 9Error Description:Feature not found Feature: OptiStructError Code: 6Error Description:[LOCAL] C:\Users\_____\AppData\Local\.altair_licensing\_____\licenses\_____.lic - (Err: 9) Feature not found[LOCAL] C:/Program Files/Altair/2026/security/altair_lic.dat - (Err: 6) Unable to read file License Path: C:/Program Files/Altair/2026/hwdesktop\security\altair_lic.dat;C:\Users\——-\AppData\Local\.altair_licensing\_____\licenses;C:/Program Files/Altair/2026/security/altair_lic.datAltair License Manager: License error Feature(s): GlobalZoneAP, OptiStructError Code: 9Error Description:Feature not found Feature: OptiStructError Code: 6Error Description:[LOCAL] C:\Users\_____\AppData\Local\.altair_licensing\_____\licenses\_____.lic - (Err: 9) Feature not found[LOCAL] C:/Program Files/Altair/2026/security/altair_lic.dat - (Err: 6) Unable to read file License Path: C:/Program Files/Altair/2026/hwdesktop\security\altair_lic.dat;C:\Users\_____\AppData\Local\.altair_licensing\_____\licenses;C:/Program Files/Altair/2026/security/altair_lic.dat No Available License

HI,

You only need the

FEATURE HyperWorksEDU

to activate OptiStruct and all other tools supported in the student edition license.

Use OptiStruct by using the analyze button / option from within HyperMesh and not the compute console, also the results will be generated correctly despite errors in the out file for certain analyses.
