Issues with windows 7 after Labview 2012 installation

Hi
I am having some issues after installing Labview 2012 on machines running Windows 7. Firstly, after installing a program on a user's machine, the machine sometimes takes 20 minutes to boot up before the user can log on. The 'Please Wait' message appears during this time. This is also the case on the development machine.
Secondly, on the development machine, I am having an issue when trying to run compiled programs created in Labview. When installing, everything works fine but when I go to open the program, it appears on the task bar for a brief period before closing. It does not appear in the task manager either. I have tried this on 2 other machines with windows 7 and Labview installed and still get the same issue.
Any help on these matters would be much appreciated. Thank you

Hi
Firstly, looking at the issue with the slow Windows 7 boot up time, as Norbert_B suggested the Windows Event Log is a good starting point to find the root of the problem. The following link describes how to launch “Event Viewer” and some common problems:
http://itexpertvoice.com/home/what%E2%80%99s-taking-so-long-how-to-fight-slow-startup-times-in-windo...
Aside from that, if your computer is part of a domain, the problem may be connected with certain Windows Services that start automatically on boot up. I recommend trying the following steps:
Open up “Control Panel” go to “System and Security” then “Administrative Tools” from here launch “Services”.
Sort the list by name and scroll down to “Network Store Interface Service” right click and select “Properties”. Under the startup type dropdown select “Automatic (Delayed Start)”.
Next scroll down to the “WebClient” service again under “Properties” this time select “Disabled” under the startup type.
As for the problem with running LabVIEW executables, I have a few questions:
Do you get any error codes when it closes automatically?
Does this occur for multiple executables or just one in particular?
Does the code run without a problem within LabVIEW?
Have you tried to update LabVIEW?
What hardware are you running?
Without this information I can only think it may be caused by the Windows Data Execution Prevention (DEP) security feature. So you can try the following steps:
Right click on “Computer” and select “Properties”.
Click on “Advanced System Settings” and select the “Advanced tab, then under the performance section click “Settings”.
Click the “Data Execution Prevention” tab.
Make sure it is activated for essential Windows programs and services only, or you have an exception for your EXE.
You may also find the following link helpful on debugging applications:

Major Issues with Windows XP and Sound Blaster Audig

As mentioned in the post title, I'm using a Sound Blaster Audigy 4 card (recently purchased) and am having issues with Windows XP apparently because of it. When the card is physically installed, but the drivers are not, there are no problems. However, when the drivers are installed, Windows XP's "explorer.exe" crashes on boot, locking up the start menu and any other open windows. Now, I can manually end the explorer.exe application and then reboot it, and things will work... however, I cannot imagine that that is the intended functionality of this card. Additionally, I suspect the card in the failure of a game (Eve Online) but I would assume the issues are related. I've already narrowed the issue down to the Sound Blaster drivers. I've tried booting with the SB drivers but without the video card drivers, and the problem recurred. Every time I boot with the SB drivers installed, it fails. Without them, things seem to run normally. If it helps, I'm using an Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 processor, with GB of DDR800 RAM. I've installed Windows Service Pack 2 and all the other updates. The video card is a Geforce 7950 GT, with the latest NVidia Forceware (93.7) drivers. I've had this problem with both the Audigy drivers on the CD that came with the card and the newest ones downloaded from this website. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3, which includes onboard sound hardware, but I have disabled it at the BIOS level. I can provide dxdiag information or anything like that if necessary. Does anyone have any advice, suggestions, or have you encountered a similar problem?Message Edited by DerekKatz on 2-04-200603:2 AM

Thanks for the helpful reply Dan
I ran the file, CTZAPXX.exe, like suggested, and it ran without a problem. It installed the files and even required me to reboot my computer!!
However, after a computer restart, I am still in the same boat. Codecs are installed, but the location of the device is "unknown". In Device manager, there are no unknown devices; it shows the codecs in the sound tab, but no actual hardware; as if my sound card does not exist.
I use my computer for music, and my buddy needs me tomorrow night to play some music stored on my computer. I really do appreciate the help I am offered. I do not mean to sound impatient, but I really need this device fixed, or I will have to have him buy me a sound card....

Weird issue with Windows Server 2008 R2 Print Server

I have an issue with Windows 2008 R2 (VMWare Hosted) running Windows Print Server.
Prior to a small network change, the print server was working well, hosting about 80 different networked printers from various vendors.
We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers). The DNS servers never quite worked right and broke AD authentication to different servers, and was just a mess.
After rolling back we are not able to keep the printers online. If we ping them from the print server, the printer(s) never wake up, when a print job is submitted. If we ping them from one of the access switches, they work fine (until they fall back asleep),
to prevent this, if we start a ping on the server AFTER waking them up from the Switch Ping, they stay online and no problems.
If we stop the ping, they fall back asleep at some point, and again, won't wake up without intervention/switch side ping.
Has anyone experienced anything like this? Any tips on how I could possibly resolve it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your description, the issue seems to be that the printers can't keep online. Sounds like a power managerment issue. Why these printers fall into sleep? Have you consulted this issue with the manufacturer of these printers? Do these printers
fall into sleep if them lose the contact with printer server? Have you tried to reset the printers?
>>We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers).
DNS client will cache the recently queried records. If the DNS server has replied with a wrong records, communication issues will occur. To clear the DNS cache on a Windows device, please run the command below:
ipconfig /flushdns

Compatibilityy issue with windows XP and windows 8.1 for adobe photoshop elements 4.0

Compatibility issue with windows XP and windows 8.1 for adobe photoshop elements 4.0?comcom

You are going to have to contact Adobe on this one. We are other users.
Sounds like it's not even an Apple question? Not sure.
But the Adobe program changed, nothing changed in iTunes, right?

Itunes issues with Windows having to do with Apple's patent

I had a thought and am not sure if it's right. I was wondering if myissues with Apple Itunes store on Windows 7 has anything to do with the Patent laws and all with Apple and samsung and all that.

I had the same issues with Windows 8 Consumer Preview. I installed on a fresh system and still had issues.
I experienced extreme lag, with pretty much everything, and iTunes freezing once I attempted to change the currently playing song.
I had a mess with compatibility mode and found out that running it in with Compatibility mode enabled for Windows XP (Service Pack 3) and as an administrator fixed it. It works now, however, there is a popup message that comes up on launch telling you to change the compatibility settings, but pressing "OK" makes it go away.
How?
Open Windows Explorer, and navigate to: "C:\Program Files\iTunes" (For 32bit) or "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes" (For 64bit), unless you changed it.
Right-click on "iTunes.exe", select "Properties" from the context menu, and click the "Compatibility" tab.
Under "Compatibility mode" check off "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" from the drop down menu.
Further down under "Privilege level" check off "Run this program as an administrator".
Click "Apply" and "OK".
Should fix any issues, I have my default iTunes Media Folder Location within an external hard drive so unplugging all of my USB's wasn't an option.
Hope I helped!

URL issue with Windows 7 Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW PI 7.

Hello SAP community,
I am facing a strange issue with Windows 7 - Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW java services (I hope I am in the correct discussion) ...
When I try to open URL http://sapserver.hosters-name:port it is working so far with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11.
But when I click than on NWA (example), I am getting "http 500 server error".
I don't have the issue, when I start-up a VMware Workstation with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8.
But now the strange part: In our network DNS (Domain Name Service), we can also open the URL by http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
Than it is working without problems with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer.
I would agree to state the comment - it is just a Windows 7/Internet Explorer 11 issue, if it wouldn't work for both URLs (http://sapserver.hosters-name:port = problem URL; http://sapserver.our-dsn:port = working).
We are using a SAP NW PI 7.x system. Some URLs for PI are using http://sapserver.hosters-name:port/java service.
Do you have any hints what is cause the issue - I suspect some with Internet Explorer and Firefox (because with Google Chrome at least the URL for NWA is opened, beside the issue, Google Chrome can't display NWA content)?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Carlos

Hi all,
I think I found the solution.
The reason seems to be, the domain name for http://sapserver.our-dns:port, "our-dns" was already added to the compatibility view settings of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
That seemed to be the reason, why it was working with http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
When I now added for http://sapserver.hosters-name:port the domain "hosters-name" to the compatibility view settings it is now working.
Internet Explorer Options => Settings for compatibility view => Add domain
Best regards
Carlos

HT4623 issues with texting after the 6.1 update on my iPhone

issues with texting after the 6.1 update on my iPhone

My wife and I are on different networks ie GCI vs AT&T after we both updated our iphones to 6.1 we no longer can receive texts messaging even though both are phones say the message was delivered. we can however text with other iphone users as long they are withing the same carrier and with everyone as long as they are not other iphones regardless of the carrier as well as with other iphon users that are still using 6.0. My wife and I also have ipads with wifi only and the one we updated to 6.1 is having the same issue while the one that is still 6.0 has no issue and will send and receive messages with out issue even to and from the 6.1 devives that are having issues. I have contacted both service providers and was told it is a Apple messaging issue. At this point I just would like to find and reinstal the 6.

SSLVPN connectivity issue with Windows 7 x64 All browsers.

I think that I have tried everything to get this working but whatever I seem to do I cannot connect to my SSLVPN using Windows 7 x64. The 32bit version is fine. I have installed the Microsoft C++ Redistributable 2010 and 2005 for both x86 and x64. I have tried clearing the cache in the Browser. I have installed Chrome and Firefox , I even started my laptop using the 'Disable Driver Signature Enforcement' from Advanced Boot options but nothing is working.
Does anyone have anything else to try. This is a bit of a showstopper for us because not do we have this issue with Windows but we have Mac users as well and that is also an issue.
Cisco really needs to fix this issue fast...
Please help.
Thanks

Try using both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Internet Explorer. Sometimes one of the two will work.

Labview 2012 Installer builder issues with Windows 7 64 bit

I have a clients project application program I am working on and am having a lot of trouble getting installed applications to work on Windows 7 properly. The Labview Installer sets the default installation directory to "c:\Program Files\" on Windows Xp and on Windows 7 64bit this defaults to "C:\Program Files (x86). When I install the application on Windows 7 and run it, because Windows 7 64 bit unreasonably protects this directory and every folder under it, if you try to write file to any subdirectory under it (like a reports directory), windows 7 will not let the file write to the directory and the file(s) disappear and you get permission errors. This has been difficult to address. Even logging in as administrator, I have difficulty changing the folder permissions. In addition, when I am in the file write process, if the default directory is coded to come up in the file Open/Save dialog, will not properly
go to and display these protected directories. So thinking that OK, I'll just chage the install directory to something direct to the C: drive and not the Program Files (x86) directory, so I have better control of the folder permissions. Now the Installer build gives errors. It built, but the install fails. Looks like National did not test this for Windows 7 very well. I have run into just about every issue possible with Windows 7 and Labview. Clearly Labview was not very well tested with Windows 7 6 bit. I do not have the Internet toolkit added to the application, only the VISA 5.2 driver. Anyone else having application issues with Labview and Windows 7 and have ideas how to work around this??

It's no NI's fault and has nothing to do with 64 Bit either. It is something MS changed starting with Vista, namely tightening security of the whole system to a similar level as was usual on more professional OSes like Unix 20 years earlier. A user has not rights anymore to write into the location where applications are installed. This is for one reason to protect installed applications from being modified by malicious code.
Instead every application should write its runtime data in one of the user writable loacations such as the user's Documents directory for data files, or in the user's or the machine's configuration directory for configuration settings. For single installations you could always set the directory which your application got installed into to be user writable by changing the rights of that directory afterwards but for applications that get installed on normal user computers this is a VERY hacky and discouraged move. Same about installing your application into the root of your system drive. I think it was an oversight by MS to not protect that directory too from user modifications, but was most likely unavoidable to allow DOS application installations to still work.
LabVIEW has functions to retrieve a whole bunch of those preconfigured and user writeable locations and you really should change your application to make use of those locations, instead of trying to write into the installation directory or installing the application into the root location of the system drive, if you want to be compatible with Windows Vista/7/8.
Windows 7 also requires for a number of actions such as installing programs or drivers so called elevated rights. This means that even if you are logged in as administrator you have to explicitedly provide the admin password again to be able to perform the action. This can be done by starting the program as administrator, when this is available in the right click pop-up menu, and is also sometimes done automatically for applications that Windows determines to need those rights such as setup programs for installations.
