ID:292010 You have both a USB and parallel port software guard connected to your computer. Quartus Prime is ignoring the parallel port software guard.

CAUSE: You have an Altera USB software guard and a Altera parallel port software guard connected simultaneously to your computer. The parallel port software guard is ignored because the Quartus Prime software can only recognize one of them. Any licenses tied to the parallel port software guard will not be usable.

ACTION: Remove the USB software guard and restart the Quartus software. Also you may request to transfer your parallel port guard licenses to your USB port guard by going to the Licensing section of the Intel FPGA web site, which is available at https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/support/support-resources/support-centers/licensing.html.
