NI System Configuration: (Hex 0x8004041F) The operation failed because of missing dependency items.

[ms05]

I went to start one of my vi's today and I get this message: NI System Configuration: (Hex 0x8004041F) The operation failed because of missing dependency items.

Does anyone know what this is or how to fix it?

Does this happen with any VI you try to deploy, or just certain ones?

Are you starting a VI or deploying one?  Your post says one thing, the error another.

[mikeporter]

Not necessarily, if you open a VI on a RT target and click the Run button, LV will first deploy and then run the VI on the target.

Oh!  I haven't used the RT environment before so it never occured to me that it could be the RT environment.  I had never seen that error before and usually a poster will state that they are using RT.

This is why I maintain that I haven't even reached the middle of the LV learning curve yet.

It does it with any vi.     I used a collegues computer at work and ran/deployed the vi and had no issues.  It only happens on my computer.  I am really trying to avoid reinstalling....

Everything has been working for months.   I copied the exact same project onto my collegues computer and he had no issues. I had done a repair on my labview.  I am not attempting to do a full repair on all national instruments software..(time consuming).  Really wish I knew where to look or what exact program I should be repairing instead of all of them.

Unfortunately you aren't provided with that level of detail. Did you happen to do anything about the time it stopped working? Install/remove software? OS update?

Since this is a company computer, I do not have admin rights to install/uninstall any programs.  I have to request admin rights to do so.  So as far as I know nothing was update nor did I change anything.

I finally fixed it.  After a full repair of all my National Instruments software didnt solve it.  I updated my labview, fpga, and Real-time to 2013 SP1.  Everything seems to be working again.
