Another similar error with the same error code experienced due to this same issue

Software & Version
SpaceClaim 2025R2
*This example was taken from this version but is not necessarily limited to this version.
Description/Cause
This issue occurred because the Widows date/time were not accurate for the time zone that was set. This caused an SSL authentication issue with the SharedWeb Token and prevented it from communicating with the Ansys Licensing Service.
Solution
- Correct the date, time and time zone on the computer and retry.
- If this does not work, Clear the Shared Web Licensing Credential Cache and try again.
