Good morning,
I am attempting to build an installer of my LabVIEW application. The executable has been built, however when I go to the installer source files category and open the executable tree all of the files are grayed out and have black background. Also, it takes several minutes for the tree to open.
I have never seen this behavior before and need help ASAP!
Thanks in Advance!

I wish I could help; I've never seen that before. Could it possibly be hard drive corruption?

Um...
Where did you put the exe build output? Oddly, the folder "My Computer" is shown collapsed and at the same root as the folder containing Build Specifications.
That should really be a Thelma Dinkley moment. ("Jinkies! A clue!")

I dont think it is drive corruption, new drive.
On a positive note, I am working on getting the files into the installer now.....
Just weird that those files are black background.....

Let me take a closer look at that!

Janitors have to just hate it when they stumble over dead bodies!
Somebody has done something wrong and "Bad Things (tm)" have happened. The good news is that when you answer why the build spec folder is not under My Computer you will be able to get the exe rebuilt and create the installer.
I only wish that I owned the trademark rights to Bad Things.
