Enable Windows Explorer for LLB in LabVIEW 8.5.1

[PrismGreg]

I have a fresh install of LabVIEW 8.5.1.  I would like to treat an llb as a folder in Windows Explorer like I have in the past.  The only problem is that this option was typically available in Tools->Options->Environment.  I doesn't appear to be there in my 8.5.1 installation.  Is there an alternate procedure I can use to turn on this feature in 8.5.1?  It would be a shame if this functionality has gone away.  My OS is XP Pro.

Thanks,

Greg

Hi Greg,

There is a workaround for using Windows Explorer instead of LLB manager to handle your LLBs. This knowledgebase explains the steps.

Instead of using Windows Explorer, LabVIEW 8.5+ uses LLB Manager. This information can be found on the upgrade notes for 8.5.
