Moving a LabVIEW Project to Another Computer

[Thili_kiri_kaju]

Hi All, 

I have been trying to move a LabView project from my PC to one of my colleagues PC. I tried to make a zip and sent it packaged , but unfortunately on my colleagues PC it doesn't open fully. I use few addons that was installed through VIPM , even after downloading the same addons on the other PC through VIPM it shows as it is missing some .dlls ( all the drivers have been installed too ). 

does anyone of you know what could be happening here ? 

Thank you

You forgot to install all needed modules/toolkits…

It really would help to show a error message box to identify the missing software components!

You should use a SCC tool (like SVN or GIT) to synchronize code between computers in your department!

I made sure I installed all the necessary drivers and toolkits in the target computer , same as I have in my PC. I get this window where it tries to look for this specific .dll , but it's one of the drivers.

That's a FTDI chip driver.

That FTD*.dll doesn't belong to NI installation (IMHO), but comes with a driver that uses some interfaces with FTDI ICs.

You need to install that driver on the other computer…

(Atleast with my LV2019 installation there is no "C:\programs\NI\" folder, and so there is no "\LVAddons\nivisa\1\resource" subfolder!)
