Why is LV2010 Asking for the LV8.5.1 RTE On Load?

[diarmaede]

All,

I am running LabVIEW 2010.  Yesterday, after I attempted to build a simple executable using LV2010 code, my system started trying to load the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine version 8.5.1 every time I try to load a program.  When it cannot find RTE 8.5.1 on my computer, it asks me to insert a CD with that on it.  See attached images.

When I hit cancel, then hit cancel on three or four other screens that ask for the RTE 8.5.1 CD, LabVIEW 2010 loads and runs just fine.

How do I fix this?

Thanks.

OK.  I talked to my NI rep, who told me I need to download RTE v8.5.1.  I did that, but now it won't install because it sees that I have a higher version of the RTE already installed.  I browse my way to the file that the my second image is requesting, but it won't load that way either.  Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Hi diarmaede,

Can you post those images and a image of the error when you try to install RTE 8.5.1?
