Continued disappointment with LabVIEW

Continued disappointment with LabVIEW

‎07-10-2026 09:20 AM

I just had to post a mild rant about the current state of NI and LabVIEW software.  In the 26+ years I've been a LabVIEW programmer, I have never had so many problems just getting LabVIEW to install.  Multiple failures where I'm prompted to try again, try again, try again, or most recently, when every time I install LabVIEW, my Windows installation is corrupted to the point where I have to completely reinstall Windows.

 

The only workable advice I've seen in these instances is to reduce the software packages I'm installing so that I have to go through multiple sessions of install, reboot, login, launch PM, select more software, install, repeat.

 

Do better, NI.

I have had horrible problems with the "online" install and/or install straight from NIPM. I have had very few issues installing from the Offline Installers. So I do think network connectivity during installation is one of the problems.
