I already cracked Ansys 11 x32 under XP. Now, I try to crack Ansys using my laptop which is running Vista

64. It seems the method is a bit different than the previous one...

Here is the following method I used to crack Ansys 11 in XP:

1. Install Ansys 11 (autoexec.exe->Install Products-> Ansys Products)

2. Install License Management (autoexec.exe->Install Products-> Licence Management)

First question - Answer No

Second question - Answer Yes

3. Start-> Programs-> Ansys Flexlm Licence Manager

Open ANSLIC_ADMIN Utility

Choose: Show HostID...(2nd tab from the top)

Write down: your Hostname and FlexID

4. Go back to the MAGNITUDE folder

open a11calc.exe

answer: NO (just write "N" and hit "enter")

type your Hostname

type your FlexID

5. Copy the licence.dat that has been created

Paste it in X:program files\Ansys\Shared\Licensing\

6. Copy lmgrd32.exe and ansyslmd32.exe from DVD to X:program files\Ansys\Shared\Licensing\i ntel\

and change the two file names into lmgrd.exe and ansyslmd.exe

7. Open LMTools:

Start-> Programs-> Ansys Flexlm-> LMTOOLS Utility

Licence Manager

Check (bottom right corner): LMTools Ignores license file path envrironment variables

In the Config Services tab:

specify path to the lmgrd.exe file: X:program files\Ansys\Shared\Licensing\i ntel\lmgrd.exe

specify path to license file:X:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\Shared Files\Licensing\license.dat

SAVE

8. Restart your pc

9. You sould be able to open Ansys and Workbench

For Ansys x64, I copied the 2 files from DVD the names lmgrdx64.exe and ansyslmdx64.exe and put them

into the following folder: X:program files\Ansys\Shared\Licensing\w inx64\

I also noticed that LMTOOLS Utility doesn't work on the 1st try, I have to install it a first time (I had to enter

the port number and the hostID) but when I launch LMTOOLS, there is an error message which is

displayed. So I install it a 2nd time. This time, I am not asked to enter the port number or the hostID, but

then I can launch LMTOOLS...

I write this message today to try to gather the knowledge and to finaly succeed in the ansys cracking.

So, answer this message and explain what you have done, which results you obtain,...
