I remember having to point Quartus to where my simulator (Modelsim) was installed. Check under Tools->Options->General->EDA Tool Options the path to your simulator. In my case (for ModelSim-Altera): I have next to Modelsim-Altera the path c:\intelFPGA_lite\16.1\modelsim_ase\win32aloem. If this is not set Quartus does not know which program to start to run your simulation.

I use custom scripts to compile and run my testbenches, so I cannot help you with other flows.
