    Hi shyan,

    Thanks for your reply. The solution is not helpful at all. I'm suing QP lite unlicensed software and have made no changes to the QP settings. Using Graphic editor schematic capture and waveform generation tool.

    CAUSE: You specified an HDL output file name using the --testbench_file option, but the HDL output file name contains a non-existent directory path.

    ACTION: Specify an HDL output file name that contains an existing directory path.

    The recommended solution above makes no sense as I'm using the Graphic Editor and not using HDL language. When I used the Waveform editor (VWF) I get this failure. What's very frustrating is I haven't changed any of the QP sw settings.

    Any further suggestions?

    thanks for you support,

    Glen

      Could you share a screenshot of the error message?

      You could try at Simulation Waveform Editor > Simulation Setting > Restore Default. Then try to run the simulation again.

      If problem persists, try to:

      a) Remove bad wave form file;
      b) Clean and rebuild project
      c) Create new Waveform.vwf and save it in the project root (same directory with your design)
      d) Run simulation.

        Thanks. Restoring default settings worked for me!
