  • I accidentally changed a *.vi labview library file. How can I fix my system?

    Dear Sir:

    I work with Labview version 8.5. works on Windows Vista o/s.

    I accidentally changed a *.vi Labview library file and now some programs which in the past has executed correctly, no more to run correctly.

    I have modified the library is named lvsound.llb and the file I changed, "SO Write.vi".

    I made two changes, however, the first amendment has been removed.

    That's what happened.   I modified the file SO Write.vi by chance, somehow, a link has been broken.

    I thought I could repair the file copy of a file to write identical SO that I had stored on another computer.     What I've done I copied the work SO Write.vi content block diagram (which was stored on a disk that is external and not stored in the 'sound' of Labview installation folder) and then I opened the SO Write.vi in the lvsound.llb (this is the *.llb of Labview installed) and deleted everything in the block and then diagram I replaced the block diagram with the copied block diagram.   I thought that that would solve my problems because the copied program did not have a cut connection - no broken arrow icon).     However, I soon discovered that programs that completed successfully before the accident, still not function properly after swapping content block diagram.

    I have attached a picture of the error message.

    Can someone tell me please the safest way to fix my system?

    Don't exchange the content of block diagram, or if you do so, as it was put in place the same connector pane. When you have removed all the controls and indicators, the connector pane has been authorized which explains why things that call this Subvi will not see that it has no control. To fix it, you need match this component of the connector:

    To set up, click an empty area of the connector pane, and then click the command corresponding or indicator. For example, down to the left of your new connector pane, click on the bottom left box, and then click 'error (no errors)' control for screws outside pass an error via the connector pane. To see where everything is connected, I would recommend that you go to a computer with a working version and one by one, click on the terminal part of the connector and the corresponding command will highlight:

    for example, clicking on the top left corner will highlight control "ID of the task in.

    Another option you have is to simply copy the .vi itself (file, block diagram not only) of library work, delete or rename the current "SO Write.vi" and simply drag the file .vi from the Explorer on the LLB Manager.

  • I can't open anything in the Control Panel, network and sharing Center or profile management, I have accidentally changed something?

    Don't know if I've accidentally changed something or not in my profile, I just want to know how to fix it

    I'm sorry but you did not just provide more information other than say in effect "it's broken". I can't possibly guess what is happening with your computer based on what you wrote. Probably the best course of action would be for you to take it to a qualified computer technician (it won't be a type BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place). Otherwise:

    The first Question of troubleshooting: If the problem is new, what has changed between the time things worked and the time they do not have?

    The second issue of Windows troubleshooting: what is the status of virus/malware of the machine? If you think it's clean, what programs (and versions) allows you to determine this?

    Make sure that the computer is clean:

  • How recover the 8 original windows product key after I accidentally changed?

    Hello guys,.

    Something really bad happened to my laptop and I can't seem to solve the problem. Therefore, I am writing this problem here in order to get the help of you smart guys. Last week one of my friends borrowed my laptop for 3 days while I worked. When he came back to me, he said that he has accidentally changed the product key of my windows and it could not get it back. I tried to work on it since then. Finally, I decide that I need help after the future store (where I bought the laptop) fail to come with a solution for the future. I know there are a lot of guys here are really smart and pro on computer problems, so maybe you can help me with this problem. It's a laptop ASUS K75DE of model with windows 8 preinstalled inside. I just want to know if there is a way for me to get the original product key from windows, which is preinstalled in the laptop.
    I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys.

    With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

    If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

    Your only option is to restore the computer to its original factory condition.

    New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.
