Example Finder Error- unsuccessful in sending a request to the NI Helpserver

[ethen99]

HI

I have got a problem with Example Finder and when I double click on an example I get this error after about 3 or 4 minutes.

An error occurred. The NI Example finder was unsuccessful in sending a request to the NI Helpserver

Wud u plz let me know what is the problem and how can I open the examples.

Check this first: Error when opening NI Example Finder: The NI HelpServer could not be found

The intention there is to check the service and to make sure your firewall isn't blocking the port.

Also, check to see if any other NI services are disabled. If there are, turn them on one by one to see if that fixes the problem. You may have to restart LabVIEW after each attempt.
