Problem with simulation quartus II web edition

Hello, I installed Quartus II Web Edition (version 13.0sp1, as required by the professor) for a university project. The software was installed on a MacBook using Parallels Desktop on a virtual machine with Windows 11. I haven’t encountered any issues until I tried to run a simulation of a schematic. After creating and saving the .VWF file, when I click “Run Simulation,” a window opens but closes after a few seconds (without generating error messages), and the simulation doesn’t run correctly. I also followed all the steps as instructed by the professor, including modifying the path to ModelSim-Altera in the “EDA Tool Options.” Can someone help me? Thank you.

    Hi there, many old version are not supported by Win11. You may try Win10 which can support more version of Quartus.

      However, many of my classmates use Windows 11 without any issues (on a PC with native Windows 11, not through a virtual machine). Besides the problem mentioned earlier, I noticed that when I click on 'EDA Netlist Writer', the following error appears:

      At this point, I would be inclined to say that it is a problem caused by running the program on a virtual machine, even though one of my classmates is doing exactly the same thing and has no issues.

    Thanks for providing the information. Accessing Quartus through virtual machines or remote desktop methods can indeed lead to certain issues.

    If any progress or issue, please let us know. Thanks again.
