Cannot install Quartus Prime Lite 20.1

I am having trouble installing Quartus Prime Lite 20.1

I have downloaded the Quartus prime (includes Nios II EDS), the ModelSim, and max 10 FPGA device support. However, when I run the quartuslitesetup, it shows me the opening screen before closing.

I tried downloading the combined files and running setup.bat however the same thing happens.

Then I decided to follow some youtube videos online, where some videos run the other setups first (like the help), however, the same opening screens pop up before closing.

I tried deleting and reinstalling all these files again and even decided to go to a different version (20.1.1) of Quartus Prime Lite for the same thing to happen still.

What do I do? Any help would be appreciated.

    What is your computer setup (hardware, OS)?

    I'd try downloading Quartus again. Perhaps you have a corrupted download.

    Did you uninstalled them correctly? Please check in control panel> uninstall program, and uninstall them and reinstall.

    Alternatively, if possible you could try to download on another PC to see if the installation would be successful there.

      I have never installed Quartus in the beginning so there was no way I could uninstall anyways.

      As for downloading on another PC, I was able to download it on a temporary laptop which was a Lenovo Thinkpad T450.

        Can you also install Quartus on that temporary laptop?

        Is this your personal laptop or working laptop that the installation was not working?

    Is there a solution to this problem? The same thing keeps happening to me and I've tried everything.

      Hi, I had the same problem and ended up downloading different version (22.1) and it worked perfectly.ㅏ
