    Hi @MV ,

    I solved this error for me. This is due to Python installed alone with SoC EDS. This python trying to access a package. but that is not available in it . To solve this error, we have to remove this python and download latest python then install it in that same folder. please reply me if it is working for you.

    I'm using

    1. Quartus-lite-20.1.0.711-windows 2. SoCEDSSetup-20.1.0.711-windows

    Steps

    1. go to Folder Path - C:\intelFPGA_lite\20.1\embedded\host_tools\python and remove all the content in side the folder.

    2. Download "python-3.9.1-amd64" and install it in the same folder path C:\intelFPGA_lite\20.1\embedded\host_tools\python

    Thanks

Hi @Rajeshm ,

Thanks for the suggestion. It is worth trying. As soon as I have a moment I will go back to the future (20.1) and soo if this was (one of) my problems. I am happy with 18.1 at the moment so I am not pressured but "out of scientific curiosity" want to close the loop sooner or later.

Are you on windows or Linux?

Thanks M.
