RTL Simulation fails with: couldn't execute ip-setup-simulation: invalid argument

Hi ,

Error: Failed to run ip-setup-simulation: couldn't execute "c:\altera_pro\26.1\quartus\..\vds\bin\ip-setup-simulation": invalid argument

 

 

I have been facing this issue since morning, unable to run the simulation, yesterday it was working fine.

Even tried regenerating IP files also today, but got the same error.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

    I experienced the same issue before, and running Quartus as Administrator solved it for me.

    Hi Sai2403 

    Could you help to share the design (.QAR file) so I could try to duplicate this issue from my side? 
    Do you run the simulation using the RTL Simulation (also called Nativelink simulation flow)?
    Additionally, which OS are you using? 

    Regards,
