Quartus keeps closing on me

Question

Every time I create a new project quartus just closes on me. no error message no new window somewhere else it just closes. It makes the new project, and I can restart the program and work on the project. But when I try to compile the project I get the following error:

Quartus II 64-Bit Version 13.0.1 Build 232 06/12/2013 SJ Web Edition
Service Pack Installed:  1

I've tried uninstalling then reinstalling the program. I make sure not to save the files in the quartus app folder, it doesn't really change anything as it still crashes when I save under the app folder. I've tried checking the disk for corrupted files. My version of windows is up to date. the version of quartus I am using is 13.0 sp1.

Does anyone have any ideas of what is wrong and how to fix it. Or do I just need to uninstall it and reinstall it again and pray to the computer gods that it works?

always format printouts as "code" for readability ... did it for you — jsotola, Mar 21 '22 at 20:03
I don't think a reinstallation would fix it. Looks like something related to accessibility interfaces. You could try disabling this by going into quartus's installation folder, locating Qt's plugins folder, and removing accessibility plugin DLLs (e.g. in plugins\\accessiblebridge or similar). — Kuba hasn't forgotten Monica, Mar 21 '22 at 20:06
If your using the same project file, you might have to rebuild it — Voltage Spike, Mar 21 '22 at 21:29
@rdtsc I'm running Windows 11, which isn't the problem since I am also running Windows 11 on my laptop and Quartus runs fine on it. — Michael Hiltz, Mar 23 '22 at 23:57
@VoltageSpike I don't think that is the issue since it closes once I click ok when creating a new project. I can then restart quartus and open the file. But when I try to compile it it sends that code message and then shuts the program down. — Michael Hiltz, Mar 23 '22 at 23:59
If Quartus does not claim compatibility with Windows 11, then it could be the OS (it can't be ruled out.) — rdtsc, Mar 24 '22 at 12:45
@rdtsc The reason I ruled it out is my laptop is running windows 11 and it runs Quartus just fine. It's just my desktop that is having issues. Since both machines are using the same OS I don't think it is the issue. — Michael Hiltz, Mar 27 '22 at 22:11
