Missing Example and VI of LabVIEW Toolkit Version 2026 Q1 in LabVIEW 2025 Q3

Issue Details

• I am using LabVIEW 2025 Q3, and I realise some of my Report Generation Toolkit's VI and examples are missing from the LabVIEW. The Report Generation Toolkit version I am using is 2026 Q1. Is LabVIEW 2025 Q3 compatible with Report Generation Toolkit 2026 Q1?
• I have installed LabVIEW VI Analyzer Toolkit 2026 Q1 for my LabVIEW 2025 Q3, but its VIs are nowhere to be found in the block diagram's function palette.
• After installing LabVIEW 2026 Q1 with its Database Connectivity Toolkit, my LabVIEW 2025 Q3 no longer has the Database Connectivity Toolkit's VIs. I found my Database Connectivity Toolkit in NI Package Manager is version 2026 Q1. Does it means Database Connectivity Toolkit 2026 Q1 is not compatible with LabVIEW 2025 Q3?
