Error on installation of LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 8.5.1: "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way"

Hi,
a colleague in India cannot install the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 8.5.1 on Windows XP. On attempting to install, an error box is shown, which says:
(window title)
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime library:
(message box text)
Runtime error!
Program: C:\National Instruments Downloads\LabVIEW 8.5.1\Runtime Engine\setup.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

I didn't find any relevant clues for this in NI forums. A search at Google brought me to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884538/en-us, offering a HotFix to solve the problem. Unfortunately, the installation of this HotFix does not solve the problem.
Do you know this behavior and do you have any ideas how the problem can be solved?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Manuel

Hi there
log in as administrator and kill all processes not needed and try again. I've seen cases where one of these free download tweak applications (like "Memory Defragmentation" and stuff like that) caused that error.

  • Error building installer: this application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way

    Hi,
    I build an appliction using LabView 8.2 with Report Generation Toolkit for MS Office V1.1.1 on a WinXP SP3 system without any errors. When I try to build a coresponding Installer, I got the following error message:
    This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
    Can anyone help me????

    Hi Gunnar,
    Good Morning and I hope your well today. Thanks for your post onto the NI Discussion Forums. 
    There are several considerations and potential causes of the error. I will try my best to cover some of the potential causes.
    Firstly, you've suggested that the Report Generation Toolkit is being used:
    When building applications with Report Generation Toolkit VIs, you must complete the following additional steps:
    1. From the Source Files tab of the Build Application or Shared Library (DLL) dialog box, click the Add Dynamic VI button to add the following two VIs to the application:
    – _Excel Dynamic VIs.vi in vi.lib\addons\_office\_exclsub.llb
    – _Word Dynamic VIs.vi in vi.lib\addons\
    _office\_wordsub.llb
    2. If the application you are building contains the MS Office Report Express VI, you must add any Word or Excel templates that you use to the built application. From the Source Files tab, click the Add Support File button to add the template files to the application. By default, the custom destination for the templates is the same as the path that appears in the Destination directory field on the Target tab with a data subdirectory appended. Do not change the custom destination for the files you add.
    For example, if you are using the basic Excel template with the MS Office Report Express VI, add MSOffice_RGT_Template.xlt to the application. The basic template files are located in the templates\Report directory.
    Have you done this?
    Could you please send an image of your project and your installer options?
    The problem was that I use Office toolkit and it was not compiled with LabVIEW 8.2:
    I found a forum where the toolkit wasn't complied for LabVIEW 8.2. Could this be an issue I wonder?
    I mass compiled the complete directory c:\program files\National
    Instruments\LabVIEW 8.2 (it took quite a long time) and afterwards the
    directory lvjpeg disapeared.
    Have you tried this?
    Runtime to Terminate Error:
    1. Have you been having any trouble with LabVIEW - crashes or bug installation?
    I would suggest repairing your installation of LabVIEW and the toolkit(s) using the Add/Remove Programs.
    2. Also would it be possible to try building an installer on another machine?
    3. I have seen that not enough Hard-disk space can cause this error - what is the status of yours?
    4. Are you using any other drivers such as DAQmx or VISA?
    I hope this information starts to help us locate the root cause of the trouble your having, and if you could answer the questions above and try my suggestions that would be great! if you could also gather the extra information about your installer options that would also really help supporting the issue further.
     *edit:
    5. Also the runtime error would suggest you've selected to include a runtime in your installer options - have you tried de-selecting this and see if it installer builds correctly? If it does, then we could then work on how to add the additional installer to your build.

    This problem can have many different causes, so the steps to solve can vary / be complex.
    Firstly, have you installed any non-Microsoft programs recently?
    If so, this could be the cause of the errors, try to uninstall the programs.
    Some other discussions (rather complex), which suggest that Explorer-extensions can be the cause of this:

    I think the error occurred somewhere within the program SyncSAP.  If this is a LabVIEW program, we might be able to suggest where it could be failing, but would need to see the code.

  • Why do I get this error message: Application has requested the runtime to terminate?

    I get this error message: Application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way.  The application won't open at all even after several tries and a reboot.

      Try making a direct desktop icon for the Editor and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop.
    Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Browse to Computer OS C:
    And find the PSE Editor application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    C: >> Program Files >> Adobe >> Photoshop Elements 9
    Within the Photoshop elements 9 folder find PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe (with the blue icon)
    Select that file and click Next.
    Then click Finish.
      You should now be able to launch by double clicking on the new desktop icon, bypassing the welcome screen.

  • MAX giving error - Unable to locate Labview run-time engine

    I have LV 7.1 and 8.5.1 installed on a WinXP pc. No problems until now.
    I installed some support software for a LabJack  interface, which required LV version 6.1 run-time, so I let it install that.
    I now get the error whenever I run MAX:
    "Unable to locate the Labview run-time engine. LVBrokerAux71 requires a version 7.1 (or compatible) Labview run-time engine...."
    After closing the error boxes, MAX seems to work fine. Both versions of Labview also work. I uninstalled run-time engine 6.1 and re-installed version 8.5.1, but that made no difference. I tried to install run-time version 7.1 from the msi file but it would not let me because a later version of the run-time is installed.
    What is LV Broker? Why does it not accept version 8.5.1 run-time engine? Is it possible to have 2 versions of the run-time engine installed, and if so, how?

    Dear CDancer
    Thank you for contacting NI. First of all, you can have as many versions of LabVIEW run time engines you want loaded on your computer without a problem. LV Broker is installed by all drivers that uses LabVIEW testpanels like DAQmx does. In your case it seems that the LV Broker installation is corrupted or has failed. This can be rectified by overwriting the files in the specified directory listed below:
    C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Shared\LabVIEW Broker
    Your directory should look like the screenshot I have attached; labelled LV Broker Directory View
    I have attached a ZIP File that will replace the LV Broker directory. Please try replacing your files with these if different to the screenshot and let me know how you get on. Many thanks.
    Many thanks for using the NI forums and I look forward to your reply.
