Did you click on 'Add Hardware' over on the right hand side in the Quartus Programmer?

You need to do that the first time, then Quartus will remember you have that device.

      Need to check if you have a compatible USB Blaster device driver installed and configured.

      Go to Control Panel / Device Manager and expand Universal Serial Bus controllers. You should have an entry for Altera USB-Blaster there. Right click on it and select Properties. They should show something similar to what I have done on my system. See below images.
