LabVIEW 2014 deleted my VI! Help!

Here is what happened:

I opened my main.vi of my project file Labview code and made some changes to my code. I tried to save it and close the FP but an error message popped up saying that he cannot save.

So I just closed the VI without saving the changes. A few minutes later, I opened my project and it couldn't find my main.vi. I looked at the directory that it has been saved on the file disappeared! It seems that LabVIEW deleted my file...!

Anyone seen this before? All solutions?

The file is not found! I even did a search and looked at my trash. It is!

P.S. It's on my work computer and I don't have access to the hard drive and other recovery software...

I would appreciate help. It would save me days of work.

  • LabVIEW 2014 hangs at startup

    Hello

    I recently installed the drivers of the Motion of my installation of Labview 2014 now and my 2014 "Device Drivers" DVD freezes just after it starts. Happens to the popup 'Welcome to Labview' and then it locks the mouse cursor and is sitting there taking 5% of the processor.

    I'm on 64-bit Windows 8. All my files are the that is I do not use mapped network drives.

    Finally, it crashes with the following error message:

    I tried:

    (1) fix the installation through my installation media.

    (2) uninstall all software from OR through the Control Panel, restarting and re - install through my installation media.

    (3) uninstall all software from OR via MSIBlast, delete all the registry keys OR by rebooting and reinstall through my installation media.

    (4) uninstall all software from OR via MSIBlast, delete all the registry keys, restart and reinstall the last LV 2014 SP1 from the Web site of NOR

    Nothing seems to solve this problem and now I'm really to the top of the Creek.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I got it fixed. I have no idea why it would work, but here's what I did.

    -Reinstalled LV 2014. Problem was still there.

    -Uninstalled all via the control panel.

    -Remove the following registry trees

    HKEY_CURRENT_USE\Software\National Instruments

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\National Instruments

    -Reboot

    -J' found always had a repertoire of Instruments of \National C:\Program Files (x 86), so I removed that.

    -Installed LV 2013 who then worked.

    -LV2013 uninstalled via the control panel. Delete the directory C:\Program Files (x 86) of Instruments \National again. (Not sure if this was necessary, but I wanted to see if a previous version worked)

    -Reinstalled LV2014 latest version via download.

    Problem is now solved.

  • allow to create or write a PDM file with labview 2014

    Hello

    I need help. I'm new with LabView. I tried to create a PDM file, but it does not work. My code in the link below is really simple, but I don't know what the problem is. My code doesn't throw any errors so I don't know what to look for in the internet. Once my code is excuting, no file is created. I use LabView 2014 and my laptoop has windows 7 on it.  My question is, in all I need to do whenever I create a new VI of specific configurations that will be play/create/write a .tdms so that my code may work correctly because the writing in a .txt file works perfectly.

    Thank you and sorry for my English

    Hi bmtanguay,

    you want to run your VI on your cRIO9074?

    Where do you think your cRIO creates this file? A cRIO is a clean computer - and it has its own 'hard drive '. This is where your file is created: C partion on your cRIO!

    You cannot create a file on your Windows pc from a VI running on your cRIO!

  • Volume License Installer does not select LabVIEW 2014 must be installed

    After you create an installer of LabVIEW 2014 at 3.1 VLM volume license, I ran into a strange behavior in the installer:

    Even if I chose to ignore all the stuff of LabWindows and don't understand that LabVIEW 2014 and additional modules that we have a license for when I created the installer - the installer itself, by operating, only LabWindows-substance previously chosen for the installation, when you get to the part of the selection of modules... All the parts that were actually included in the Installer are unselected (!).

    I always try to rebuild anywhere Installer, but maybe this is a known problem or has a solution (I guess I can modify some files in the installer to tell him which parties should choose by default, it is not dynamically linked to the license is available on the server now, so that the installer should detect that we indeed have a licens LabVIEW 2014 and so select it for installation?).

    Looks like the license was not quite ready for 2014, even though his name was declared 2014... got a new OR and it works very well.

  • Raspberry PI installed correctly on LabVIEW 2014 with LINX 3.0 (yellow warning)

    Hello everyone

    Well, I create this thread because I can't connect with my RPI with LabView2014, I'll put some different screenshots, as you can see I already install the LINX 3.0 on my computer.

    My computer sistem

    -10 64-bit Windows

    Products already installed

    -LabVIEW 2014 32-bit

    (this labVIEW I downloaded from the link of the PDF tutorial)

    LINX - 3.0

    -Control design and Simulation Module

    Module - MathScript RT

    NI - VISA

    VI - Pakage Manager

    -Also, I have my license activation

    I'm going to download some print screens in this same position

    Thank you

    Ruben Rhico

    Hey Patrick,

    Make sure that you have restarted LabVIEW since installing LINX.  If the problem persists, follow the instructions in sharpk in this thread.

    Let us know if that fixes the problem.

    Thank you!

  • Is it possible to start the gateway of 2014 VeriStand using LabVIEW 2014 programmatically?

    Hello

    There is a reload of the Is-there-a-possibility-to-start-the-VeriStand-2011-SP1-Gateway because what worked in 2011 SP1 is no more in 2014.

    I've worn the code in the previous topic, do the same thing (calling "__cdecl Int32 StartVeriStandGateway (excluding handle Int32)" in "C:\Program Files (x 86) \National 2014\Data\NationalInstruments.VeriStand.Gateway.dll".)

    Do this from a .NET (console process or windows) program or directly from a node DLLS in LabVIEW 2014 seems to have no effect, knowing the .NET code worked in 2011 even when it is called from a Windows service.

    Is there a new way to do it?

    Moreover, the "NationalInstruments.VeriStand.WindowsRegistry.GetInstallationDirectory ()" method disappeared from assemblies.

    Best regards

    I remember before I saw this. There was a problem where the dll cannot run in the UI thread, but has no way to specify any thread, but the LabVIEW user interface thread. So, the solution was to put DLLS in a sub - VI, value than Subvi to run in the 'standard' thread and calls the value of the call to the DLL to run in any thread. See attachment.

  • LabVIEW 2014 SP1, hardware and real-time PXI

    I'm doing my third LabVIEW Wipe/reinstall in as many days, completely frustrated (and after several calls an hour with the support of NEITHER).  Here's the situation:

    I wrote a fairly large (1000 VI) project of Acquisition/control of our graduate students data used for behavioral experiment on sound localization.  It was developed in 2012 LabVIEW with the module running on a PC/PXI system real time.  It worked very well and was brought successfully under LabVIEW 2014 (with upgrades comparable to the software of the PXI.

    About 18 months ago the students began to write their theses, and at one point stopped gathering data.  Also, at some point, I upgraded the software on this system to LabVIEW 2014 SP1, but I am not sure that I never tested my software with this new system.

    This week, I pulled up the system to use MAX to open some test on the PXI multifunction and DIO card panels to control manually one of the stimuli.  I discovered that MAX could not communicate with the advice on the PXI system - he attributes them as devices VISA, indicating each Board with an icon with a red X means that he could not communicate with the IP that I had assigned to PXI.  Yet, MAX (a) could "discover" this PXI, (b) MAX can 'see' its IP address, and (c) Windows could not only Ping the IP, but could FTP on the drive of the PXI and I could move files back and forth.

    I did two sequences complete "Wipe/reinstall" using LabVIEW 2014 SP1, all giving the same result.  I know it has worked in the past, including when I installed LabVIEW 2014 (without SP1), something I repeat myself now with my third installation.  I discussed with OR (thin?) possibility that there is a "hidden defect" in the Distribution of the SP1, one that is visible to LabVIEW RT users using PXI hardware and go unnoticed because (a) install a few sites of LabVIEW versions SP1, (b) a minority use the RT Modules and (c) PXI is "old material".

    If anyone has such a system or saw a similar problem, please answer.  I'll do a follow-up post if I managed to 'fix' my system by this last reinstallation "a solution of worked before."

    Bob Schor

    Well, the answer is that, in my system, LabVIEW 2014 SP1 with LabVIEW Real-time connected to a PXI system does not appear to connect to boards plugged into the chassis.  Returning to LabVIEW 2014 (fall release), installed in exactly in the same way that the three failed attempts of LabVIEW 2014 SP1, works immediately.  Engineers OR will try to duplicate/verify/possibly patch? in this issue.

  • Not compatible with Labview 2014 IMAQ?

    I try to work with a National Instruments / SuperDroid Robots SD6 ( https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-18528 ) now...

  • No screws daqmx in labview 2014 64 bit

    Hello

    I have daqmx 14.0 installed on my Win 64 bit PC and LabVIEW 2014 SP1 32 bit. Today I installed LV 2014 64-bit on my PC and I don't see any DaqMX screws under the section i/o measure. And when I opened my project compiled in 32-bit LV 2014 then computing begins looking for screws DaqMX and I point it to "C:\Program Files (x 86) \National 2014\vi.lib\DAQmx" but the daqmx vis are broken.

    When I click on the run button broken, the error list displays 2 errors:

    (1) VI couldn't carpule

    (2) external component or missing driver

    It seems that I need to install special drivers for daqmx, so I downloaded daqmx 14.5 of the or site and during installation when it asks the path is by default "C:\Program Files (x 86) \National" but I changed it to "C:\Program File\National Instruments\" and the installation program gave an error message that I can't install the 32-bit files in 64-bit folder.

    How to solve this error?

    Thank you

    So should I just uninstall daqmx from my PC and re-install again. or do I uninstall labview and daqmx together and then install daqmx and labview?

    Reinstall everything DAQmx.  It will install only the parts you need, in this case, it should just be support for LabVIEW.

  • When replacing Labview Labview 2014 2013, must I first uninstall Labview 2013?

    I just received my latest version of Labview 2014 CD.

    When you install this new version, must I first uninstall previous versions of Labview?

    Normally you will not want to uninstall older versions of LV while upgrading an older project to your latest version of SW is good there are times when you want to leave the vesion where it is.

  • support for labview 2014 nidaqmx

    Looks like the last 9.9 niDAQmx is not support for Labview 2014. Any idea on where to download / expected eta for niDAQMX support for labview 2014?

    A new version of LabVIEW is generally released during the week OR (starting tomorrow). I guess, at the end of this week, at the latest, you will find all necessary drivers - including a new pilot DAQmx - ni.com.
