## CFX5 Launcher: CFD-Pre/Post, Solve Manager, TurboGrid
Some users might need to visualize or change some parameters when running calculations with the CFX Solver. For running
**TurboGrid**, **CFX-Pre**, **CFX-Solver Manager** or **CFD-Post** one should run it with the **`cfx5` launcher** binary:
```bash
cfx5
```

If **ssh** does not work for you, please use **NoMachine** instead (which is the supported X based access, and simpler).
