    Hi Dave,


    You may need to disable window firewall and try to re-launch DSE.


    Thanks,

    Regards

      Hi,

      I have turned of the windows defender firewall, but still get the same error message. I have also tried DSE II on a machine running Linux and got the same message.

    Hi Dave,


    Alternative methods:

    1. Use newer/previous version of DSE from Quartus
    2. Reinstall DSE and Quartus and launch it again.
