    Hello!
    Does Ansys run in your Windows virtual machine? If not, would you share a screenshot of the error + generate a technical report at the moment of reproduction (click Parallels icon > Help > Send technical data > check "Attach screenshots..." > press Send Report) and send the report's 9-digit ID in your reply.

    Thanks you, Ansys actually works almost fine, but it is not possible to work without seeing the geometry and the mesh, it requires opengl 4.5. when will it be available?

    I don't have a solution for now, I'm using Ansys on bootcamp on an intel mbp16, but if I use it on parallels it won't make me see the mesh. I would like to upgrade to M3 macs but Parallels won't work for Ansys for now, let's hope they'll make the compatibility for opengl 4.5 soon...

    Hello everyone, is there any news on this topic? I have a MacBook Pro with M3Max chip and would like to run simulations with Ansys on it. Unfortunately, I am also getting this OpenGL 4.5 error. I am grateful for any help :)

    Same issue as everybody here, I also need openGL 4.5 to run Ansys. @Adarsh Jeetun, please follow up the progress and prioritize our requests. Thank you.
