Failed to launch NIOSV Command Shell. Getting (0xc0000142) application error.

[prashant_gohel]

Hello,

I'm having trouble with the Nios V Command Shell; specifically, I cannot start the shell (niosv-shell.exe) or the RiscFree IDE. Sometimes the program starts, and sometimes it does not.

Operating system:  Windows 10 19045.5737 version 22H2.

Tool: Quartus Prime Pro 23.4

I'm getting an application error 0xc0000142: I've already reinstalled the Quartus tool a few times.

Also followed the steps from the link below.

still getting the same issue.

Hi Prashant, 

It appears you’ve already reinstalled the tools, yet the issue still persists.

Are there any other files remaining in the Quartus installation directory? Could you perform a completely clean install to ensure no outdated files are left behind?

Let me know if that works.

Regards,

Divya
