Problem with LabView Update 3.2 #2

[rclothier]

I just installed LabView Update 3.2 #2, and now LabView won't run at all. When I try to launch it, it says "Unable to open resource files." This is a horrible time to have no LabView! Suggestions anyone?

Last i got, it was 3.1.

That seems to mean you tried to run the update from within the .zip file.

Uncompress everything and run it again.

I have the same problem "unable to open resource files". I ran the update from the extracted file, not the zip file. I have tried to run it two more times and I get the same error.

We've heard of this happening when Windows decides to update in the middle of your FRC install. Usually running the FRC update again fixes it. I'm curious how you run the FRC update. Do you unzip it to a folder, and then run the installer?

I'm having this same problem and the same error message pops up every time I try to install the 3.2 update. I also cannot roll back to 3.1

Exactly how are you installing it?

By extracting everything from the .zip archive and running Autorun.

I'll just reinstall LabVIEW.

I unzip everything into another folder and I first run the AutoRun and I run the SetUp.

I have done the update for five times and Labview still doesnt run at all.

I'm sorry to say this, but we had the same problem and the way we fixed it is to reinstall labview. also remember to extract the update before running it.
