Title

Error: Verification failed for device number <device number>

Description

You may get the "Error: Verification failed for device number <device number>" when trying to program a non-

Workaround / Fix

check "show checksum without usercode" in the options for the programmer.

To do this open the Quartus® II programmer then select Tools>Options>Programmer. You will now see the "Show

checksum without usercode" option that you will be able to check.
