When I try to build a packed library, I receive the following error:

Possible reason(s): 

LabVIEW: File not found. The file might be in a different location or deleted. Use the command prompt or the file explorer to verify that the path is correct. 

Solution

The LabVIEW Application Builder Module is installed with LabVIEW, but will need to be activated to work. To address this error, ensure that your LabVIEW Application Builder Module is activated .
