As a user of very early versions of LabView I am always reluctant to upgrade to the latest version of LabView. I recently upgraded from LabView 2016 to 2017 and NXG only to find that I could not successfully build my application. A number of components were unavailable which were linked to the "NI LabWindows/CVI Shared Run-Time Engine 2013 SP2" collection. It seems that these were replaced by the "LabView / CVI Shared Runtime 2017" components, but lacked the resources. These being:
(1) ActiveX Container Support
(2) Real-Time Utility Support
(3) Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
(4) Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
(5) Visual C++ 2008 Runtime
(6) Meas Graphics Support
Is there a reason as to why this is being implemented during the upgrade? I've had to rollback the installation and I am using LabView 2016 to enable me to continue with my work. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
