Issue Details

We are using the same hardware on different computers in our project. Every time we connect the device(s) or reinstall a PC, the NI Product Registration Wizard window shows up to register the product(s). How do I disable the NI Product Registration Wizard pop-up window?
 
 

Solution

The NI Registration Wizard window is an integrated .exe-file that is being called from most of the NI application processes, this is the reason that it is popping up whenever changes are made that are related to any NI (especially physical) products. Disabling this process might have an impact on NI product functionalities and it is an important part for us tracking our products from a legal and security perspective. Due to these reasons, the NI Product Registration application cannot be disabled.
