Model-Sim tries to compile header files not included in my project and fails. Model-Sim also fails to instantiate FIFOs and potentially other IPs because it looks it the work_rtl library instead of the altera_mf library

Hi,

Can your try the steps as below:

1)Update Quartus to the latest version and the latest version for each Quartus Prime edition as below:

Quartus Prime Pro 19.2

Quartus Prime Std 18.1

Quartus Prime Lite 18.1

Caution: Must be refer to the device support in each version

You may refer to the link below:
