Autodesk Inventor 2023 - What is this hell?

[TJustin]

To preface this, I am fairly new to this type of deployment/app as well as being fairly new to deploying said app within a school environment.

 

So this nightmare of an installation took some time to get working but according to all the logs I can find, It installed correctly and all went well.

Now the real problem: When attempting to run Inventor, it doesn't work. In that I mean I can see the process in task manager/process monitor, but there's no splash screen, no windows opening up, nothing.

 

Steps I've taken are:

• Firstly running as admin - no difference.
  
• Confirmed the license servers are correct - correct and reachable from client.
  
• Ran through the process's happening via Process explorer - uneventful.
  
• left the computer running the process for an extended time to see if its an issue of time - no success.
  
• Attempted to reset inventor - no difference.
  
• checked all logs/event viewer - no indications of failure.
  

 

I have run out of ideas. has anyone else ran into this issue?

Any advice or suggestions on additional things to try/check?
