Sir I have install crack version of ansys 2021 but topology optimization tool is missing in my toolbox I have check it in a view/customise but topology optimization tool is not their can plz help me to get that????

[@AltheSplinebender]

Haha, you must be joking! No, I can not advise on crack versions other than getting rid of it. My students use legal student licenses, but it means limitations on element numbers.

@@Chinmay_9812 I can only guess that you choose the options when installing the software. So I’d try running the installer again. But I don’t know the later versions of ANSYS. it is possible that the module has been renamed or even removed from the package. There are many discussion groups in the web that can probably help you better with this.
