I have not been able to make CFX run in parallel on 64-bit Windows machine?




On a 64-bit machine, the default CFX installation path is usually:
C:Program Files (x86)Ansys IncCFXCFX-%v
However, there is a
C:Program Files
directory as well.

A 64-bit machine has 2 paths that contain the words "Program Files". The path
C:progra~1ansysi~1CFXCFX-%v
therefore has an ambiguous meaning in this abbreviated form.

The DOS short form for any path with spaces is the first 6 letters of the pathname followed by "~1". Because the two `Program Files` directories are identical this way, the second one to appear in the directory list usually gets an `~2` instead of a `~1`. The short version for the longer x86 path is therefore
C:PROGRA~2ANSYSI~1CFXCFX-%v.
