Brand new 2020 Community Edition Labview user with no coding background. Am home now during COVID-19 trying to learn LabVIEW which has generously offered their online Core 1 course for free until end of May? [I have lab experience and have USED LabVIEW but never programmed it. I want to improve my skills so I can get a better job] Following course along till unit 6 which requires the use of DAQmx (which was explained and directed to be downloaded previously in the course). All good until I try to USE DAQ Assistant in the function palette of the block diagram lesson. No can find. Have spent DAYS going through the knowledge base (and Google) including the most-recent Jan 21, 2020 "Why Don't the NI-DAQmx/NI-DAQ VIs Appear in my LabVIEW Functions Palette?" NI support document. Running Windows 10 with required speed, RAM and HD size. Order of install was correct (first LabVIEW then drivers). Did the "Modify" files as required in the instruction. Created the "menus" and "default" subfolders as described, "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW X.X\menus\default". Rebooted. Still can't pull up DAQ in the functions palette.
As a Community Edition user, it seems I cannot ask NI for help as there is no product serial number or license (that I can find).
I'd appreciate a leg up onto this horse. This is just the beginning of my journey and I bet I'll laugh about how stupid I was one day, but right now, I'm feeling really frustrated.
