Error (12252): IP Helper Library GetAdaptersAddresses function failed

[ArcticRain]

With a project that compiled fine before, I now get the following error when compiling.

Error (12252): IP Helper Library GetAdaptersAddresses function failed

I have noticed this seemed to begin after a windows update was applied.

Full error trace I am getting:

Error generating Qsys

[RichardTanSY_Altera]

Is there a way that I can generate this error? probably sharing the design?

Not sure if this works, could you try to compile again by removing the qip file and just leaves the qsys file in the project?

I am guessing this is a configuration error on my computer. I haven’t been able to reproduce it on other computers with the same project. Ryan Link Principal Engineer, Electrical +1 651 756 3308 ryan.link@abbott.com<mailto:ryan.link@abbott.com>

Have you try to reinstall Quartus software?
