Can't find the LabVIEW App

[Irethedo68]

I just downloaded the latest Community LabVIEW verson, it installed and activated , but I can't find the app.

Does anyone know where the executable can be found?

(where the install program stores it)?
Thanks!

It should be at C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 20xx

HELP

I spoke too soon.... I tried to run it and am having problems with the activation. I thought the Community version was a free trial,  but I don't see that as an option...

😞

The Community edition is "free to use", but not a "trial"!

You need to download the installation files WHILE being logged in with your NI user account.

And when you activate the Community edition you also need to provide your NI user account credentials…

Thank you for the reply.

I am not sure what my NI user account credentials are or where to find them....

It is the same credential you use on the ni.com website.
