Issue Details

How do I disable the Nigel AI code completion wiring target (located on the block diagram: ) in LabVIEW 2026 Q1 and later?

Solution

To turn off the Nigel AI code completion feature, you will need to edit the LabVIEW.ini file to include following entry:

 

Wiring.CodeCompletionTarget.Enabled=FALSE

 

This line can be placed anywhere in the LabVIEW.ini file. If LabVIEW is open, you will need to restart LabVIEW for the changes to come into effect. 

Additional Information

The LabVIEW.ini file is located in the LabVIEW installation folder:

  • LabVIEW (64-bit): C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW [Version]
  • LabVIEW (32-bit): C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW [Version]
