Installer for LabVIEW 2024 Q1 patch - selection menu on web page is not clear

[heel]

On the downloads site there is this information in the pull down menu for versions to install.

That's all fine and good,

but then if selecting 2024 Q1 patch it shows this

The text "Please install 2024 Q1 patch1 before installing this patch" is a bit ambiguous

• where is the patch1?
• or _is_ this patch1
• or is the text incorrect and actually meant to say "install 2024 Q1 before" Which actually would make sense.

Seems to be slightly messed Community Edition and Professional installer placed together.

If you will try to download LabVIEW 2024 Q1  Professional Edition Offline installer:

Then two offline installers will be offered: 2024 Q1 and 2024 Q1 Patch 1:

I guess the "Patch 1" mentioned in your post is related to this path.

But this is not applicable to Community Edition.

Attempt to download 2024 Q1 Community Edition will deliver ni-labview-2024-community-x86_24.1.0_offline.iso and download patch will be ni-labview-2024-community-x86_24.1.1_offline.iso.

Web pages also have some bugs and usability issues.
