Quartus II 13.0sp1 Waveform Files Refuse to Simulate

Hello,

I think you need to ensure the Simulator Waveform Editor is set up correctly.

Try selecting Modelsim simulator instead when you select in Options, it should be fine for you to use this instead.

Before you start your simulation, ensure the EDA settings is set up correctly. Go to Tools>Options>EDA Tool options and check that your ModelSim executable path is set correctly (you can check for the correct path in your local files, it is usually "C:\altera\13.1\modelsim_ase\win32aloem")

Ensure your project is fully compiled before starting simulation.

Here are threads that have problems with Simulation Waveform that you may find useful:

I also want to add that Quartus II 13.0sp1 does not support Windows 10. I would suggest using any versions of Quartus Lite that supports Windows 10. This is because using an unsupported OS may cause inconsistencies.
