Changing the Installation Folder for Software Installed by NI Package Manager

Updated Apr 23, 2026

  • Package Manager

Issue Details

I want to change the destination directory for software I download and install using NI Package Manager (NIPM). Is it possible for me to do this?

Solution

NI applications are designed to work together using a common, default installation directory structure. This ensures reliable operation, consistent updates, and compatibility across NI products. Installing NI software in custom directories may lead to unexpected behavior and is not currently supported.

Additional Information

Be aware that NI does not guarantee that all NI software will function properly if the installation folder is modified using alternative methods, even if the installation process completes successfully.
