Quartus 13.0 doesn't detect qdz file

Hi,

For a Cyclone II device, I have installed Quartus web edition 13.0. However, the device installer can not detect for qdz file while it is actually there in the path. Please see the attached picture.

It is weird. Any idea for that?

    Very strange. But it looks like you're doing this on Windows 10 with a pretty old version of Quartus. No guarantees in that setup that anything will work. Try using the main Quartus installer instead of trying to install devices from within Quartus.

    I want to use a cyclone II device, so the latest version is 13.0.

    Quartus is (sometimes) a little flaky with mapped drives - permissions related. Try locating and installing the package from your c: drive.

    Cheers,

    I have the same problem with version 13.1 and just install MAX 2 EPM 240 device but no QDZ files found

    Sorry to tell you but since intel took over ALTERA things are not smooth like it was in the past.
