I have installed Quartus Prime on a Win 10 PC. When I use the programmer application it won't recognize the presence of my USB Blaster.

I used to use Quartus II version 14 on a Win 7 PC and had no problems programming devices. The Win 7 PC will eventually not be supportable and I'd like to transfer the functionality to a newer Win 10...

I tried to re-install the driver as per the procedure but it did not work. It always tells me that the best drivers for my device are already installed. Also, note that in the device manager the USB Blaster shows as "USB Serial Port (COM10)". However in Devices and Printers it shows up as a "USB-Blaster". Please see the attached Word file with screen captures. Thank you.
