Hi @Marvalawrence,

Apologies on the late reply. In case you are still seeing this issue or for the benefit of others, try/check the following in order:

  1. Check this Knowledgebase article to see if you are getting any common errors: Troubleshooting your OpticStudio installation – Knowledgebase (zemax.com)
  2. Reinstall / repair the Visual C redistributables (see article from the first check).
  3. Run C:\Program Files\Zemax OpticStudio\OpticStudio_Prerequisites.exe to check the perquisites.
  4. Uninstall / reinstall OpticStudio.
  5. Reinstall .NET from this page:
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/microsoft-net-framework-4-8-offline-installer-for-windows-9d23f658-3b97-68ab-d013-aa3c3e7495e0
  6. Contact Zemax support if you are a supported user.

Best,
Ethan
