NI License Manager Missing From Localized Windows Search Results

Updated Aug 28, 2026

Issue Details

I have NI License Manager installed on my computer, but I cannot find it when searching for "NI License Manager" from the Windows Start menu or taskbar search bar on a localized (non-English) Windows operating system. Searching for the English application name returns no results.

Solution

To launch NI License Manager on a localized (non-English) Windows operating system, open the Windows search bar and enter the application's localized name in the operating system language. For example, on a Korean Windows system, search for NI 라이센스 관리자.
 
If NI License Manager does not appear in the search results:
 
  1. Open NI Package Manager.
  2. Verify that NI License Manager is installed.
  3. Perform a repair or reinstallation of NI License Manager if necessary.
