Hello There,
Can you please help me with this issue?
By any chance can I have the access to USB_Blaster drivers to control the TMS pin? Is there any command that I can use. I see even with Quartus Prime Standard version (GUI application), I am not able to reset the TAP-State.
Awaiting the response from your end.

Hi Alkesh,
A hard reset shouldn’t be required. This usually happens because the JTAG TAP or a device is left in a test state. Between scans, reset the TAP, park all devices in BYPASS, return to Run‑Test/Idle, and do a short DR flush. Avoid ending in EXTEST or HIGHZ. If your device is Stratix 10, enable boundary‑scan once via the MISCCTRL instruction. Quartus Programmer isn’t a full boundary‑scan tester, so you need to manage these states or use a dedicated BST tool.

What device you are using btw?
