Hi Manu30,

I can't directly relate to installation on Windows or the particular version that you are using, but I have gotten the Nios II IDE to function in Linux with the 23.1std version of the tools. I would recommend updating to that version...if you can...

As an additional note, I'd recommend using Nios V for any designs. It's supported going forward. Nios II is deprecated and, frankly, hasn't had adequate support for the better part of 10 years. I'd only use Nios II, these days, if it were my only option.

Can you point to exactly which installation instructions you tried to follow please?

I might have to rope someone in who actually uses Windows to help on the "funky" Windows installation fun.

Best Regards,

Andor
