CVI application asks for Labview RTE

Question

Hello,
I have installed an application made with CVI 2010 several times on different computers without any problem but now on 1 computer I get the following error when I try to start the application:
Labview Run-Time Engine 7.1 Configuration failed
Please find attached MSI logs.
How can I solve this issue?
Thanks
Bertrand

Hi again
Of course, the installation of an autonomous application should not (and usually do not) require any other component than the RTE of CVI and the drivers used by the applciation (if you call an acquisition board for instance in the program). 
Should you want to proceed to a clean deinstallation procedure on the computer causing trouble, you can download MSI Blast from the following link :

Of course, you should use this program with caution.
Removing every acquisition board from the computer before running it is also a good idea.
After that you should install all the programming software you want to use, install the drivers and then reconnect the boards.
An other way to solve the problem would be to make sure that your installer is not requiering useless components.
To repair the installer in this case, you can use the following documents (the procedure is written for LabVIEW, but it should be the same under CVI).
