&lt;p style="padding-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;The Calculation Strength command is grayed out:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="padding-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;The Calculation Strength button is grayed out:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/pastedimage1598293118429v2.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 style="margin-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color:#008000;color:#ffffff;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Answer:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;There are 2 issue that would cause this to happen:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;1. Running in Demo Mode or with out the correct license.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;2. There is a&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;~systemnam&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;folder that was not deleted when the model was closed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. License Related:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;It is likely that you may be running the software in &lt;strong&gt;Demo&lt;/strong&gt; mode. Go to File&amp;gt;License Configuration. After the dialogue appears, make sure that you select either of&amp;nbsp;the &lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;quot;Vessel&amp;quot;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; or &lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;quot;Vessel Enterprise&amp;quot;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;options.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4 style="padding-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Trial&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;(confirm key entered was correct)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;h4 style="padding-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Vessel&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;h4 style="padding-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Vessel Enterprise - Includes All Codes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;padding-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/pastedimage1598293118430v3.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;Another common issue is that the actual license will restrict certain functionality depending on the license currently in use. See the &lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;AutoPIPE_Vessel_Tutorial.pdf &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;copied to the program&amp;nbsp; folder during installation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;Pages 12-14 provides some specific details about licensing; example, Vessel vs Enterprise License Matrix:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/pastedimage1598293118432v4.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Note:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;1. 1 Free code with AutoPIPE Vessel Package (PV design only).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;2. License Example: if&amp;nbsp;company purchases AutoPIPE Vessel License with Vessel Code USA ASME VIII, the program will&amp;nbsp;not&amp;nbsp;analyze or save a model for &lt;strong&gt;Tank design&lt;/strong&gt; nor Shell and Tube Heat Exchange as those options are&amp;nbsp;reserved for the&amp;nbsp;AutoPIPE Vessel Enterprise License.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:30px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Folder Was not Deleted:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;When a model is opened in AutoPIPE Vessel, a Folder with the same name as the model but starting with &amp;quot;&lt;strong&gt;~&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp;is created in the same location as the model. Example: see image below:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/6574.4.png"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/320x240/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/pastedimage1598293118434v5.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;When the model is closed by the program, this newly created folder is deleted, or should be deleted. However, sometimes the folder is &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff6600;"&gt;not&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; deleted. The next time when the file is opened in the program some application functions will not be available (i.e. Execute&amp;gt; Strength Calculation).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#008000;"&gt;To fix, close AutoPIPE Vessel and remove / &lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Delete&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; the&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;quot;~systemname&amp;quot;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;folders and restart the application, re-open the model, and try to run the Strength Calculation command again. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
