Abaqus CAE runs very slow

Abaqus CAE runs very slow

Abaqus CAE runs very slow

(OP)
Hello,

My abaqus is running very slow for past 2 days. Even when I try to model wireframe in part module, it takes approximately 5 seconds when I try to draw a line, for example, I click 'create lines: connected' the cursor arrow circles for 5 seconds, then I proceed to draw line by clicking on grid, it circles 5 seconds and I click another point in grid (for eg, 10 metres) to form line then it circles 5 seconds. Even when I try to choose mesh module it take 5 to 10 seconds, it is super slow when comparing to previous days of my work. In the past like a week ago, it was always instant whenever I switch module from part to property or other.

Even when animating results, each frame takes 5 to 8 seconds, when I use slider for choosing frame rate it still is super slow, which makes extremely difficult when recording animation for presentation. In past it worked good without slowing down.

It would very helpful, if someone guide me to solve this issue

P.S. Every other software works perfectly, even games which takes more ram and graphics card works perfectly too.

I have 8 GB ram and 2 GB graphics card

RE: Abaqus CAE runs very slow

I am having the same issue in the last 3 days and before it works perfect! It is so frustating. ¿Have you found a solution? Thanks.

Did you update anything in the past week that may be affecting performance?

I would contact Simulia.

RE: Abaqus CAE runs very slow

Surprisingly, I have the problem solved.
I checked in the update history of Windows 10 and I have not updated anything (no setups, no changes at all) in the period of time that the problem appeared. However, with the last Cumulative Update for Windows 10 (KB4015438) the problem has disappeared.
I appreciate your help Dave442 and hope it works for Mechanicslearner.

Hello Dave and JL Guzman,

I think only windows 10 automatic update is done and I am not sure of it. Also msc licensing keeps updating and I even re installed Abaqus 6.14 still no hope. Is there anything I have to check?
