Super ContributorCould you try deleting both the db and incremental_db folders from the project directory on the network drive after the error occurs? Then, try recompiling the project again to see if the issue reoccurs.
Additionally, in the Compilation Process Settings, try to set the Maximum processors allowed to 1, to disable the parallel compilation.

New ContributorHello,
I was able to prove through testing that the error only occurs when compiling on a network drive with a fast, powerful computer. I tried this with a Dell Precision 7540 with Windows 11, 128 Gbyte memory, Intel Core i9-9980HK CPU, 2.40 GHz.
I was able to compile the Blink design locally on the hard disk 5 times without any errors, without any change to the design with use all available processors.
If I take the same design and compile it on the network drive (connection via the LAN of our university), the error occurs again the second time and the Quartus installation is corrupted! Fitting is no longer possible. (The first time I compiled, the computer even crashed with a blue screen).
I uninstalled Quartus, cleaned the registry with Ccleaner, reinstalled Quartus Prime and tried again.
Locally on the hard disk I can compile Blink 10 times without any changes.
Then I copied the project to the network drive and, as Richard Tan recommended, deleted the db and incremental_db directories and set Maximum processors allowed to 1.
The second time I compile, the same error occurs again!
The network drives at the university are sometimes slow, but I work with many other programs (Altium Designer, KiCad, field simulations with CST, …) that show no problems on the network drives.
