Occasional ContributorModelSim - License Error
I have installed Quartus Lite 20.1 and ModelSim-Intel FPGA.
When I open the ModelSim from this path:
C:\intelFPGA_Lite\20.1\modelsim_ae\win32aloem\modelsim.exe
I get this error:
How do I solve this problem?

LChow3I found the solution. If I open the modelsim.exe from the folder \modelsim_ase\win32aloem\modelsim.exe, then I don't have license error.
So, what is the difference between the modelsim.exe in these 2 folders?

Hi @LChow3
You have installed both ModelSim*-Intel® FPGA Edition Software(modelsim_ae) and ModelSim*-Intel® FPGA Starter Edition Software(modelsim_ase) .
ModelSim*-Intel® FPGA Edition Software need a license to run while the starter edition does not.You may checkout the page below for further details.
