uninstall unused boards

Hi,

while installing Quartus 11.1 i choose all boards from Stratix to Cyclone.

Now the whole Alterastuff without any programm of me, needs nearly 20Gb :(

So I want to uninstall all of the boards I dont need, so just Cyclone IV E stays, beacuse thats the one I use.

Is it possible to do that, without reinstall the whole Quartus stuff? :confused:

    Unfortunately you may need to re-install. Its the stratix series that takes up the large amount of space (and of those, its the Stratix 4 and 5 that kill it).

    You might be able to go into

    /install dir/quartus/common/devinfo

    and delete the devices you dont want. But I suspect they are interelated so I would risk deleting them,
