Thanks Vikas

To clarify, the Programmer shows No Hardware selected. In the Hardware Setup, the Currently Selected Hardware shows No Hardware, as you attached, and there is no USB blaster option in the drop down menu, as you showed. There is also no USB blaster (or anything) under the Available Hardware Options.

I did check the KBS page you suggested, but I do not see any Altera JTAG Server running on my system services

Is there something else that I can do to fix this issue?

I have also attempted to use this solution, where a user with the same issue uninstalled and reinstalled the software and driver and ran the program as admin. But for me, the issue persists :(
