11 years agoI try to re-install Quartus and Models in a different directory and now are both in folder Quartus-Modelsim and the path of simulation assigned is:
C:/Program Files/Quartus-Modelsim/modelsim_ase/win32aloem but even after the re-installation and the change of directory I have SAME problem. @kuppe I can launch the Analysis and Synthesis tool and it worked without problem. I can open Modelsim program without problem but I don't know how lauch a run simulation not started by Quartus. I am a student and I am a very beginner of Quartus but I have to learn to simulate for my exam!

5 years agoThis path worked for me: C:/Program Files/Quartus-Modelsim/modelsim_ase/win32aloem
I am a student and learning to use this.
