Honored ContributorModelSim wont launch in Windows 10
Hi,
I just installed the latest copy of ModelSim-Altera 10.4b, I am facing an issue which I am unable to resolve. When I try to launch ModelSim, the attached screenshot shows up, but after that ModelSim application won't start. ModelSim used to start normally earlier, but this problem somehow came, and now I am unable to start ModelSim. To solve this I reinstalled ModelSim, which is my current version. But the same problem persists. I checked for any modelsim.exe process in task manager, but no such process was running. I also added exception for ModelSim and its files in Windows Defender, fearing it might be clashing with the operation. But none these things worked. Is there any other way I can Launch ModelSim application. The only thing that comes is the attached screenshot and then nothing starts. Can someone please help.

Altera_ForumModelsim isn't yet supported in windows 10. Check the vendor website of all your tools before upgrading Windows. Each tool will have a supported operating system list. Take this seriously.

And this problem started maybe after an windows update or something. After which I tried to reinstall the ModelSim again to solve the problem, but the problem persists even after the fresh reinstall. Also since Windows support legacy things, I was hoping there was some trick to make it run on Windows 10.

There is no way that I know of, but perhaps someone else can help.
