Re: Failed to launch NIOSV Command Shell. Getting (0xc0000142) application error.
Hi @prashant_gohel Thanks for testing it out. Let us know if re-installing Python makes any difference. Meanwhile, our tools team have created a test setup with Windows 10 to list out the list of DLLs that are expected to be present for niosv-shell / qyartus_py. To find this on your Windows machine, use this Microsoft utility : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/listdlls To run this, first launch niosv shell : c:\intelFPGA_pro\23.4\niosv\bin\niosv-shell.exe Then from a new cmd shell, run : Listdlls.exe quartus_py.exe > out.txt You can compare the DLLs listed in 'out.txt' with the list provided below by our tools team. For convenience, we've categorized the DLLs based on their source. Below is the list of DLLs provided by Windows: Base Size Path 0x00000000072b0000 0x1f8000 C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll 0x0000000005750000 0xc2000 C:\WINDOWS\System32\KERNEL32.DLL 0x00000000049f0000

We attempted to reproduce this issue on a Windows 10 machine but have not been successful so far. The Tools team recommends trying standard Python 3.8.10, as it closely matches the Python 3.8.18 version used by quartus_py in Quartus 23.4. Download Python 64bit 3.8.10 from: https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.10/python-3.8.10-amd64.exe Run the Python installer after download completes. Select Custom Installation uncheck Documentation uncheck tcl/tk and IDLE uncheck Python test suite Click Next Uncheck Associate files with Python (requires the py launcher) Uncheck Create shortcuts for installed applications Select Customized install location and use this path or any convenient short path. c:\a\Python\Python38 Click install Close From command prompt: cd <quartus installation>\niosv\bin\niosv-shell-files\ c:\a\Python\Python38\python main.py As suggested above, set the PATH to minimal, we recommend installation to be at default c:\intelFPGA_pro\23.4 and run NIOS V shell.Re: Failed to launch NIOSV Command Shell.

Hi Prashant, I just wanted to follow up on this thread. Did you find any PYTHON environment variables on your system ? Our tools team suggest running these steps and let us know if it resolves the issue : 1. running the Windows Resource Checker as Adminstrator w/ following command: sfc /scannow 2. Try simplifying the PATH to the minimal and execute. Example: C:\Windows\System32>set Path=C:\Program Files\Python312\;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS; C:\Windows\System32>c:\altera_pro\25.1_129\quartus\bin64\quartus_py C:\Windows\System32>c:\altera_pro\25.1_129\quartus\bin64\quartus_py "print(\"hello\")" hello Regards, DivyaRe: Failed to launch NIOSV Command Shell. Getting (0xc0000142) application error.
Hi Prashant, I'll follow up internally once more to get an update. But in the meantime, here's what they've shared : For the NIOS V tools to function correctly, quartus_py.exe must be operational. We have not seen any issues with this executable in our regressions. The team suggests checking for any PYTHON* environment variables. To do this, run set in a cmd.exe shell to display all environment variables. If you find any PYTHON* entries, try removing them to see if that resolves the issue. You can remove a variable by running: "set name_of_variable=" Let me if this helps. Regards, DivyaRe: Failed to launch NIOSV Command Shell. Getting (0xc0000142) application error.
Hi Prashant, Since I’m unable to reproduce this issue, it’s hard to pinpoint the cause. I’ve checked the environment variable on my system and it mostly matches with yours, perhaps you could try updating the SOPC_KIT_NIOS2 under user variable to reference your current installation? Regards, Divya
