Solution
LabVIEW gives this error when a VI lacks the data necessary to open. The VI may have become corrupted and unrecoverable.
- Try opening a backup copy of the VI
- Try to open the file in other versions of LabVIEW or on another computer
- Try to use another VI.
To prevent or mitigate this issue:
- Make frequent backup copies of the VI
- Save VIs in a local location instead of on a network
- Uninstall and Reinstall LabVIEW.
If you receive this error when trying to deploy a built application (EXE file) on a target computer:
- Make sure the correct LabVIEW Runtime Engine is installed.
- If your application calls into any 3rd-party DLLs or libraries, make sure those libraries and any dependencies are installed in the correct location on the target PC.
- In some cases, installing the LabVIEW development environment on the target computer may resolve this error.
