Stand Alone Application Requires LabVIEW Development System

Updated Jun 14, 2021

Issue Details

I created an EXE application from a LabVIEW project. From this application, I made an installer. I tested it on another PC and there weren't any messages. The program was provided to the customer. During the installation, by pressing the setup.exe it pops up a message "You must install LabVIEW 2020 64-bit on the system before you can run this setup". The PC on which the installation fails is however a Windows10 64 bit.

Solution

On the second PC, the message didn't pop up, because there was already an installed LabVIEW development system.
Solution:
1. In the "My Installer Properties" window go to the "Advanced" in the "Category" tab, uncheck the box "Require the LabVIEW 2020 64-bit development system".
2. Rebuild the application.
