and may be installed on as many machines as needed, but requires access to an Ansys license server and a license
file to run.
Granta Selector is listed under Materials. You can click for the package details.
Save File GRANTASELECTOR_2024R1_WINX64.zip when prompted.

Note: To use Granta Selector with Ansys Workbench, you must have Ansys Workbench 2024 R1 installed. If
you have a different version of Ansys Workbench installed, the Granta Selector add-in will not work.
