Is there a new version of Labwindows 2023 planned?

Good news.  Hopefully it will pan out.

My colleagues went to the NI Days Germany and were pretty much told the same thing. Apparently there will be at least one more major release.

By the way, 2020f3 and 2020f4 seem identical. The only obvious difference is a version bump of the "ni certificates" package.

The download size at least seems different:

f3: 1.64GB

f4: 1.52GB

Seems unlikely that a version bump of the NI certificates makes such a big difference in size 😁

f3 came with f2 f1 f0 packages as well, f4 got rid of them.

f4 is the same as f3, simply repackaged.
If I try to install over my f3 current setup, installer terminates with "nothing to do" (or something similar).

Honestly, I can understand - at most - that a company would prefer to follow one path rather than another, leaving thousands of users stranded, but this release of fake patches seems like a real joke to me.
