Hi Pvilla,


For testing purpose, does uninstall Meridian app resolve the issue? or kill the task for Meridian and only launch Quartus as administrator, see if it works.


Cheers,

If you uninstall Meridian, then yes, Quartus will work normally. Based on what you asked we tried loading Meridian and Quartus, stopping the services for Meridian and Quartus launched and worked.

we then stopped the auto startup on Meridian and now we can have Meridian and Quartus on the same pc and they play well together. thank you for your questions, it prompted me to look at it in a different way.. this will get us through until the engineers find out why these two programs don't play well together.

much appreciated.
