Hi Brianna,

You need to specify your ModelSim executable directory. To do this, go to Tools>Options>EDA Tools Options.

At the ModelSim directory, add an extra "/" at the end of the path name like so: "C:/altera/13.1/modelsim_ase/win32aloem/"

There is an old discussion thread regarding this issue that you can refer to: https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Quartus-Prime-Software/Can-t-launch-the-Modelsim-Altera-Software/td-p/163728

I hope this solves your issue. Let me know if your issue persists.

Regards,

Nurina
