I have installed and use the web/lite versions of Quartus 13.0sp1, 16.0, and 21.1

Never have I needed to install a license file/code.

The web/lite (ie, free) version vs the standard/prime (ie, paid) version does not require a license be installed to run.

From the install guide for 16.0, for example:

Note: The Quartus Prime Lite Edition and ModelSim-Altera Starter Edition Software do NOT require a
license. If you are using this software, you can skip the licensing step and begin using the software.

The other versions I use have similar language. So use the web/lite version if it supports the devices you have. Much easier.
