NI MAX can't find remote systems

[Raheel21]

Hi dear all,

i have installed LabView nxg4 and along that MAX 20.0 on my pc Win7.

The problem that i am facing is that my MAX tree "Remote System" Tab cannot find any remote systems.
I am using usrp-2944

Unfortunately, you are using no-longer-supported software (NXG4) on a no-longer-supported Operating System (Windows 7).  I recommend that you update to Windows 10 and a supported version of LabVIEW.

Will it work if i upgrade to win10 and nxg5?

NXG was discontinued around 2019/2020 and is nowadays more dead than a dead fish in water. That said, before any software (including NI-MAX) in your computer can see your USRP device, you will need to install NI-USRP software drivers. But Windows 7 is definitely trying the software Gods nowadays for any software released in 2020 or later. And you likely don’t want to install NI-USRP 2015 or similar but something a bit more recent.

ok
I am trying to transfer files between two PCs using FileZilla, but this problem has stopped me. Is there another way to transfer files using FileZilla or through alternative methods.

The "safest" way to transfer files between two PCs is by doing a copy of the files to an "intermediate device" (which can mean copying them to a USB Flash Drive, burning them on a CD/DVD, copying them to a "network share", copying them "to the cloud", or committing them to a Version Control System, the recommended method for "software Source files").  Once you have a copy on another medium, you connect the other PC to this medium and "copy the copy" to the second machine.  Have you never done this before?  A "hidden virtue" of this method is if you somehow "mess up the copy on both PC1 and PC2", you have a "copy of the original" that should be intact.
