10.5. "Specified optimization settings are not supported with OptQuest."

Applies to:
Evolver 6.x/7.x
@RISK Industrial Edition 6.x/7.x

When I click the Start button, I get this popup message:

Specified optimization settings are not supported with OptQuest.

Which of my settings does OptQuest have a problem with?

It's not actually optimization settings, but your model definition. There are two possibilities:

In both of these cases, if you have selected Settings » Engine » Manual » OptQuest you'll see this message, and the optimization will not proceed. If you have selected Settings » Engine » Automatic, which is the default, the optimization will use the Genetic Algorithm and you won't see this message.
