Hi Polina,

What do you mean by RTL simulation successful but simulation window not opening.

Can you attache image and elaborate steps.

Also tell about Quartus tool version & edition used.

Regards

Anand

    I have Quartus Prime Lite 19.1. Here is what happens when I start RTL simulation.

    Also I tried to start modelsim manually and it produces the following error

    Failed to obtain lock: couldn't open "/home/user/.modelsim_lock": file already exists
Error in startup script: 
Initialization problem, exiting.

while executing

"PropertiesInit"

"ncFyP12 -+"
(file "/mtitcl/vsim/vsim" line 1)
** Fatal: Read failure in vlm process (0,0)

    So, it looks like modelsim is not working properly for some reason.
