uninstall labview trial 8.6

[Al996]

Hi,

     I have installed the Labview 8.6 trial version. My trial license expired. The issue is that I need to uninstall the labview trial version (in windows XP). When I use control panel, it fails. When I use the labview installer/modifer that the program used to install itself, it fails. How do I remove this program from my computer completley (files, registry settings, etc.)?

Thank you for your assistance.

You should contact National Instruments; they have some utilities and procedures in place to remove NI software and references from your computer.

Hi AI996,

Thanks for your post and I hope your well today.

If the add/remove programs didn't successfully uninstall LabVIEW. Then you could try using the MsiBlast.exe.

Just make sure you don't have it open or any code running (check Task Manager to make sure no LabVIEW tasks are running). 

Hope this helps,

Adnan - keep up the good work 😄
