New ContributorThe Nios II license was purchased at the same time as the Quartus license:
When I generated the license I had both licenses selected. Is there another way to get both licenses in the one generated license file?
New ContributorI solved the issue. In the active maintenance license page, even though the Nios license showed the correct primary computer, it was not being generated. I edited the license the Nios license settings primary computer setting to none, then back to my active computer; saved and generated a new license file. Now Quartus generates a .sof that is not time limited.
