I have a LabVIEW project on one computer that I would like to move to another computer in order to continue development. The original computer is not connected to the internet so as not to automatically update any software, it's a very delicate setup. It is connected to a host machine with a real time OS, which communicates with an FPGA and other hardware. I'm trying to copy the project over to another computer that already has the same version of LabVIEW, plus all of the same toolkits and modules. I used the LabVIEW "Save a Duplicate" feature to save it from the original computer to a flash drive, then opened it on the new computer, but I'm unable to access the VI that I want to modify. On the original computer, it's under the part labelled "Controller", but on the new computer the controller has an error and will not allow me to see the folders contained within to access the VI that I would like to edit.
Right clicking on the controller and selecting "Explain Warning" gives me the following error:
The new computer has the same version of LabVIEW, plus all of the toolkits and modules that the original computer has, so I don't understand why I get the error on the controller. How do I resolve the error on the new computer?

Do you have the control drivers installed? Most likely the cRIO drivers.
The other thought is to make sure you have a valid license for the toolkits on the new computer. NI License Manager can help you there.
