Hi,
Can you try to re-install the USB Blaster driver from the drivers folder Intel Quartus Prime Standard edition v17.0/17.1 or Stand-alone Quartus Prime Programmer v17.0/17.1? You can refer to the following KDB link:

You should be able to download the Stand-alone Quartus Prime Programmer from the following link:
