Ansys starting problem

I'm using computer with windows 7 64 bit, AMD processor. While starting ansys 12.1 workbench it gives errors. This problem start occurring when my computer was not shut down properly.

    Try and repair the ANSYS installation. Some applications provide a repair option when you run the uninstaller from Add/Remove Programs (I'm not sure if it is there is ANSYS 12.1 since I use 8.0). If you do repair it, you may need to reconfigure the Ansys license manager with your license.

    For me problem is resolved by deleting the contents of ansys folder in

    the directory path -C:\Users\pap\AppData\Roaming\Ansys

    Cheers!!
