Thank you for your response.

However, I have installed/removed/reinstalled Ubunto 18.04 and WSL while carefully following the instructions in the support article you mentioned as well as the more thorough Terasic article I mention above.

I am able to run Nios II Command Shell by itself from the Start menu. It recognizes typed commands as expected.

I have verified that the WSL is set to version 1.

I have verified the Environment variables are pointing to the correct locations:

  • QUARTUS_ROOTDIR C:\intelFPGA\21.1\quartus
  • QSYS_ROOTDIR C:\intelFPGA\21.1\quartus\sopc_builder\bin
  • SOPC_KIT_NIOS2 C:\intelFPGA\21.1\nios2eds

I am still receiving the same errors as mentioned earlier.

Is there a means to interrupt the flow to just prior to the error occurring to see what the state of the machine is at that point?
