For some reason my Quartus II version 13.0 license has expired. It used to be a yearly pain that I went through to get it renewed, but I can't figure out how to get one now. I tried generating a n...

      Hello Wani,
      Thank you for taking the time to look at my issue. Just to let you know I have Quartus Prime Lite version 19 AND Quartus II version 13.0 installed on my home computer. I keep version 13 so that I can support some legacy MAX parts that I have in my personal stock. Every 6 months, my license for V13 expires and I need to get a new one. When it expires (or about to expire), that's when I get the Quartus Prime Lite warning/error that my license is expired. However, this Quartus Prime Lite error goes away when I get a new license for V13. For some reason, V19 license is linked to V13. I tried to "decouple" it, but it did not work. It always thinks the license is the one I use for V13.
      As a side question, is there a way to get a more "permanent" license for Quartus II V13? Each time I need to get a new license, I struggle with it.
      Regards,
      Rick
