Bolt Toolkit downloads
A new version of the app is usually released a few weeks after each new Ansys release. New versions may also be released at any time to correct bugs or to improve features for the current and two previous major Ansys releases. You may re-visit the download page to check for new versions at any time, use the “Downloads” shortcut in the app “Help” menu. The app will check once a week and notify if there is a new version available.

App installation files
Migration notes
Starting in 2025 EDRMedeso uses a cloud license server to activate the app using a license key.
These new app installation files cannot be used with the previous CADFEM license server.
The license file has been sent to the Ansys support coordinator or IT contact person for each existing customer with a note to distribute inside the organization. If you fail to obtain this information you may contact our Ansys support using the app help menu.
