You can have multiple versions of Quartus installed; different version numbers and both web and subscription editions, just make sure to install them in unique folders, eg.,

c:/software/altera/12p0sp2

c:/software/altera/12p0sp2_web

Dave,

Installing both packages on different directories works ok, but... is there any way to use the subscription edition package with a License Setup configuration that enables only the Web Edition features?

I would like to avoid installing (and downloading) both packages. It would be nice to install only the subscription edition package and downgrade it to the Web Edition features when a full license is not available.

Is there any way to do so?

Best regards,

julio

PD: This used to be possible some years ago, when the full/free versions of Quartus were obtained using different license.txt files with the same installation package.
