Hello,
this is my first installation of Quartus Prime Lite. After the installation has been finished i can see one Quartus and one Questa FSE icon on my win10 desktop.
If i try to start Questa FSE, then i can see a Questa welcome window, which then disappears. Thats all, no error or license issue message!
As far i understood the Lite version should contain all licenses.
My questions:
1.
Can i use Questa FSE for free in Quartus Lite?
2.
What do i need to consider to start Questa poperly?

I try to find a documentation for this issue, but there isn't (no at Trenz and not at Intel)

Solved:
An extra "Get no-cost licenses" file is needed for Questa and the path must be set with the environment variable LM_LICENCE_FILE.
