Windows Security Won't Install NI Software

Updated May 30, 2025

Environment

Software

  • LabVIEW

Driver

  • NI-DAQmx

I am not able to get past the Windows Security prompt that repeatedly asks me whether I want to install the NI software from NI Package Manager:

Kindly have a try on the following recommendation to resolve this issue:
  • Ensure you're logged on with an account with Administrator privileges.
  • Run the installer as Administrator.
  • Disable all virus protection software and firewalls.
  • Try installing the software on a different computer to verify if it's only one PC or if something in the network setup is affecting all PCs.
  • Try installing the Offline Installers instead of the normal installer.
This issue is not specifically related to NI software installers, but is more a Windows Security blockage. We highly recommend talking to your IT department to help you configure the right settings on your network and PC.
