[ANSWERED] Need some help about components affects Engineering Softwares

Software: WinreducerEX 7 - 1.4.5.0
OS: Windows 7 Professional SP1 64bit(Official iso)

Im using ANSYS 17.0 for education. This software uses some kind of Flexnet Server Licensing Service etc. When i try to work with customized OS, some applications of this software gives an error: "Host spawning Node 0 on machine "my username" (win64)".


Which components am i supposed to keep for work without any license-server problem?

Here my config: https://yadi.sk/d/FP_axqBxs5PpE

For summary, i only kept Windows Update, SNMP components(for other one engineering software), .net framework options, some notebook friendly things and there is no expert winsxs optimization.

Also im not able to install some of Microsoft SQL products. SolidWorks Electrical needs a SQL software but its not possible to install with my customized OS. Any tips there for SQL products?

Thanks in advance. Ill be glad if i solve this problems. Because customized OS affects that kind of softwares performance too much(like 1.5x-2x).

Hello,

If I were you, in order to try to find which component(s) is (are) responsible, I will try to avoid removing :
- all "Fonts"
- "Languages - English"
- "Network - Internet Explorer (Engine)" and all "Network - Remote" components
- In "Services" : "HomeGroup Listener and Provider Services", "Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) Service", "Peer Name Resolution Protocol Services",  all "Remote" services, "SSDP Discovery Service", "Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol Service", "Telnet Service"

Your software are too specific for me, but this may do the trick.

Ill try and report, thank you winterstorm 

I have found which feature necessary for ANSYS license management. Its Remote Access Manager feature.

Keep SNMP feature-services for SolidWorks licensing, keep Remote Acess Manager feature-services for ANSYS licensing, it will be fine.

I don't know still SQL required components.
