After reinstalling ANSYS Student 18.2 recently I also ran into the issue that some have reported that Workbench opens up with no toolbox items. I initially thought it was an installation problem or license access problem. In my case I found that the UI had launched in a custom view mode, hiding what I was expecting to see. My problem was solved by selecting View > Reset Workspace

Did you just install ANSYS?  Which version (17.2 or 18.2)?  Which license (Student or other)?  What OS version are you using?

[mohamed elgidwy]

I was using it, and this problem just happened, so I reinstall it again. version 18.2, student

Hello, my friend, I've had the same issue for two days and couldn't figure it out, Would you mind if you help me go through this?

[roshin]

Hello. Once I reinstalled the software, it got fixed. But I believe there are other ways to fix it without having to reinstall. All the best?

2020R1 Student licence will have expired recently. 2020R2 is good until about August/September and 2021R1 is the new release. n

[18960010]

Mine is 2021R1 and I still have that issue.

[Rob]

Did you reinstall from a fresh download in the last few days? The original build had a fault in the licence so it timed out last week...... n

[Rob]

which version, and if 2021R1 did you redownload the zip? n

[Dedigs]

I have the same problem as . It's 2021R1 version what i downloaded 16.02.202. We have to redownload the zip and reinstall the program?n

[Rob]

You will, I don't know the date of the fix, but if it's not showing any applications it's likely got the old (incorrect) licence. n

[scotdani616]

Hello, Rob. I did see the announcement that there was a license problem with the student edition and to download and install the latest package. I've attempted to download and reinstall more than once but I'm still getting the license error and no analysis systems displaying in Workbench as described in this thread. Thoughts?

[Dedigs]

Array i'm too redownloaded and reinstalled program but without results n

[YasserSelima]

It might be your firewall blocking Workbench from connecting to the internet.n

[prataprathore1010]

Same issues , same problem . Still no solution working.nPls give solution.n

[Rob]

I assume you've extracted the zip before installing and switched off the firewall etc? n

[prataprathore1010]

yesn

[prataprathore1010]

yes but same result n

Ansys 2020 R2 mechanical workbench layout is not visible clearly..... it was viewing right after the installation, I don't know where the error is.. How can I change it to normal? Please help me. nn

[Gabriele Picerni]

Hello Everybody! I also had the same problem: once the software was installed, the toolbox resulted to be almost empty with all the icon missing. I solved the problem after many days playing with licence right. I am trying to install it again but I still have the same issue. Moreover, the workbench icon is grey but all the downloading procedure was carried out properly I am sure. I hope someone out there has a solution. 

 

[Lara Fábian]

Hello! In the 2023 version of Ansys, the option that corresponds to "Slave" is "Assign Boundary -> Coupled -> Secondary".

[Muhammad Sharjeel Chawla]

You can fix this problem by going to workbench file location. Right click on the icon and select properties. Select compatibility and change high dp settings. Then select override high dpi scaling and dropdown the arrow to select system (enchanced) option. Restart the workbench :)

[Mariah Carey]

Another solution that I've found useful is to right click on an empty space in the toolbox area and select "Customize Toolbar". Then in the "Toolbars" tab, make sure that the "Standard" and "Custom" checkboxes are selected.
