Maxwell3D Error -- Unable to locate COM Engine on 'Local Machine'

Click For Summary
Users are encountering a "Unable to locate COM Engine on 'Local Machine'" error while running Maxwell3D in ANSYS Suite 2020 R1, particularly when attempting to solve induction problems. This issue has been previously resolved by some users, but solutions are not readily available in the current discussion. Participants are seeking advice and potential fixes for this error, indicating a shared frustration with the lack of clear guidance from ANSYS. The problem persists despite previous successful attempts at similar tasks. Continued inquiries suggest that this error remains a common hurdle for users of the software.

Getting an error in ANSYS I haven't seen before and do not know why?
I am attempting to solve a rather simple induction problem in Maxwell3D that I have solved before. But this time when I run it I am getting this error and can not seem to find a solution in ANSYS? I am running ANSYS Suite 2020 R1

Thread 'I thought it was only Amazon that sold unsafe junk'

I grabbed an under cabinet LED light today at a big box store. Nothing special. 18 inches in length and made to plug several lights together. Here is a pic of the power cord: The drawing on the box led me to believe that it would accept a standard IEC cord which surprised me. But it's a variation of it. I didn't try it, but I would assume you could plug a standard IEC cord into this and have a double male cord AKA suicide cord. And to boot, it's likely going to reverse the hot and...
