Hey all,
I am unable to run any installer on my current computer. As a possible solution, could I run the installer on another machine, save the installed files to a USB drive, and then move them to the respective locations on my current computer without running an installer?
If this is possible, what specific files should I look for regarding the LabVIEW Runtime, and in what locations should I put them?
Thanks for any help that you can provide me!

Hi,
I don't think it's possible : when you're installing labview run-time, it's like others programs : keys are written in regedit, path are built in windows environnement.. and so on.
So you can't just copy a folder. That's just possible with the .exe that's running, but not with the run-time.

Are you on Windows? Is your Windows Installer broken? Have you tried reinstalling Windows Installer? Is it a permissions issue? Installation requires admin privileges.

Hi JustinJames.
As ramses64 said, this process is practically impossible. The installer even for just the runtime engine of LabVIEW does a bit more than just copying files/executables to certain locations. That being said, it will undoubtedly be far easier to solve the problem you are experiencing with installing the software on the first system. Can you please elaborate as to what is happening? Are you seeing any errors? Are there codes associated? At what point do you see these errors? The more details you can provide, the better we will be able to provide advice with the matter.
Regards.
