Hi,

Another alternative way is locate to the Quartus you downloaded on your disk. The file path will be: Your_local_disk/intelFPGA/Quartus_version_you_installed/nios2eds/version.txt


You should be able to see the version of the NIOS core you installed in the text file.

Thank you.

    Hello Kelly,

    Thanks for your swift and detailed response. I learned the project database I have is pretty old ( built with Quartus Version 13.0). The version.txt is not available either.

    Eventually just opened using old quartus version and figured out the NIOS version.
