Failed to launch NIOSV Command Shell. Getting (0xc0000142) application error.

Hello,

I'm having trouble with the Nios V Command Shell; specifically, I cannot start the shell (niosv-shell.exe) or the RiscFree IDE. Sometimes the program starts, and sometimes it does not.

Operating system: Windows 10 19045.5737 version 22H2.

Tool: Quartus Prime Pro 23.4

I'm getting an application error 0xc0000142: I've already reinstalled the Quartus tool a few times.


Also followed the steps from the link below.

still getting the same issue.

    Hi @prashant_gohel

    For 25.1Pro,

    Please ignore the umppc*.dll.

    • It is uniquely found in Intel laptop.
    • It is expected that your laptop don't have umppc*.dll.
    • Quartus doesn't rely on it to run.

    With that, there is no missing dll to run 25.1Pro in your system. Your system's DLL matched our system's DLL.

    Thus, I am sorry that we have no other suggestion to provide, beside the workaround below or perform a Windows 11 Update/Reinstall.

    For 23.4Pro,

    Besides ignoring umppc*.dll, the ccl_zlib.dll is installed thru the Quartus installer.

    Reinstalling the Quartus is only option to resolve the missing ccl_zlib.dll.

    If the above solution is not helpful, here is a possible workaround.

    quartus_py can be substituted with python downloaded from official python.org website.

    • The equivalent version is 3.10.14 but any 3.10.* will work too.

    Sample for running niosv-shell :
    python3 <quartus installed dir>\niosv\bin\niosv-shell-files\main.py

    Regards,

    Liang Yu
