Hi @prashant_gohel

Thanks for testing it out. Let us know if re-installing Python makes any difference.

Meanwhile, our tools team have created a test setup with Windows 10 to list out the list of DLLs that are expected to be present for niosv-shell / qyartus_py. To find this on your Windows machine, use this Microsoft utility : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/listdlls

To run this, first launch niosv shell : c:\intelFPGA_pro\23.4\niosv\bin\niosv-shell.exe

Then from a new cmd shell, run : Listdlls.exe quartus_py.exe > out.txt

You can compare the DLLs listed in 'out.txt' with the list provided below by our tools team. For convenience, we've categorized the DLLs based on their source.

Below is the list of DLLs provided by Windows:
