I have a ep3c55 with a M25P20 configurator. What version if any can I use thats free to program the M25P20 with a hex file?

Quartus Lite 18.1 I downloaded and its still asking for a license?

Hi MCoop7,

M25p20 device do not in any version of Quartus.

Another alternative I can recommend, you can use "Generic Flash Programmer" in Quartus 18.1.1std /19.1pro version and above.

"Generic Flash Programmer" enable user to define any 3rd party QPSI flash device in Quartus.

​I think I have the m25p20 entered correctly? I am surprised the software filled in the Initialization/program/erase/verify flow charts without any input on my behalf. My question though is I see some commands that dont match the m25p20 datasheet and a couple for which i have no clue where or what they are? see below. VCR Command 0x81? EVCR Command 0x61? These are not even in the Command set for m25p20?
