Measurement Studio

Issue Details

I have an existing LabVIEW Project that used to work fine in another computer. It opens without errors in my new computer, but when I try to compile the code I get the following error:

Unable to resolve type 'NationalInstruments.UI.WindowsForms...'

Solution

This issue is caused due to Visual Studio not recognizing Measurment Studio correctly. Please verify the following.

Check that a compatible version of Measurement Studio is installled in your computer.
Verify that this is not caused by a licensing issue.

If everything seems to be correct, is likely that the issue is caused due to a corrupt installation. To solve this, please try repairing your Measuremet Studio software.
