LabVIEW or TestStand Starts Slowly When Not Connected to the Internet

Updated Aug 29, 2023

Software

  • LabVIEW
  • TestStand

Issue Details

  • When starting my LabVIEW Development system, or my LabVIEW Application it takes a long time to start. This only happens on systems where I do not have a internet connection.
  • When starting the TestStand runtime, or the TestStand development system it takes a long time to start. This only happens on systems where I do not have a internet connection.

Solution

LabVIEW and TestStand can both access the .NET interface, which will start with the application. .NET will try to access the network and check for certificate revocation which will increase the time for the startup.

You can deactivate this by following the steps below to get a quicker startup. 

Go to Internet Options -> Advanced and scroll all the way down to Security. Uncheck the following:
  • Check for Publisher's certificate revocation
  • Check for Server certificate revocation
  • Enable Integrated Windows Authentication


Restart your PC afterwards. The application will now start right away.
