By efuse are you referring to this?
If you unable to share the screenshot, perhaps you can share the error message shown in the quartus.

New ContributorI guess I am looking for the Fuse called out in this white paper "Secure Device Manager for Stratix® 10 Devices Provides FPGA and SoC Security White Paper", ID 650483, 2017-11-09 page 2 Table 1 under the Max10. In the Max 10 handbook (2025-03-10), there seems to be a fuse ID block (section 4.1.2). In general, it doesn't seem clear. In section 6.1, where do I find or get the "Unique Chip ID Intel FPGA IP Core" called out in this section? This seems like a good method to secure the Max10 device.
I concluded that the problem is with the board. I was able to buy another board and I don't have an issue programming the pof. But if there is a fuse, maybe I or a previous user of the board set this.
Thank you!

Super ContributorMAX 10 does not have eFuses and does not have an SDM.
New ContributorDid you look at the Max10 handout section 6.1 and some of the other Max10 documents? They talk about fuse ID so can you elaborate more on how you concluded that no fuse exist? In addition, if you google for Dr Sergei Skorobogatov research paper called "Hardware security evaluation of Intel® MAX 10 FPGAs: from feasibility study to security boundaries" he talks about fuses in that paper. (I do understand it is harder to prove there isn't than if there is but this part is pretty old and Intel has not fixed their document to remove "fuse" from their literatures for the Max10.)
Thank you!
