Can't launch the Questa Intel FPGA Software - The path

[Mythos1]

Can't launch the Questa Intel FPGA software --- the path to the location of the executables for the Questa intel FPGA software were not specified or the executables were not found at specified path...

I can't find the path way to run RTL simulation. I don't have the same files as the other solving methods such as C:/IntelFPGA/23.1/questa/win64.

Would anyone suggest how to fix this?

Are you saying you are launching Questa from Quartus or you are launching it standalone?  Assuming it's from Quartus, you have to adjust the EDA tool path from Tools -> Options -> EDA Tool Options.

Here are some steps to launch QuestaSim on a Windows system:

Set Up the Environment:

Ensure that QuestaSim is installed on your Windows system.

Set up the environment variables. This typically involves setting the PATH and LM_LICENSE_FILE variables. You can do this through the System Properties.

To set environment variables:

Right-click on 'This PC' or 'Computer' on the desktop or in File Explorer.

Select 'Properties'.

Click on 'Advanced system settings'.

Click on the 'Environment Variables' button.

In the 'System variables' section, click 'New' to add a new variable or 'Edit' to modify an existing one.

For PATH, add the path to the QuestaSim bin directory (e.g., C:\path\to\questasim\bin).

For LM_LICENSE_FILE, add the path to your license file (e.g., C:\path\to\license\file).

Open a Command Prompt:

Press Win + R, type cmd, and press Enter to open a Command Prompt window.

Navigate to Your Working Directory:

Use the cd command to navigate to the directory where your design files are located.

CMD

cd C:\path\to\your\design\files

Launch QuestaSim:

To start QuestaSim, type vsim in the Command Prompt and press Enter.

CMD

vsim
