DAQ Assistant fails to launch when placed in the block diagram

I'm currently undergoing an issue with the DAQ Assistant when I attempt to place the function in the block diagram. As shown in the getting started guides for DAQ, once the DAQ Assistant is placed it should launch. Unfortunately this does not occur when I place the DAQ Assistant. Instead nothing appears and I lose the ability to click anywhere in the LabVIEW program and I have to close the program through the task manager. When I attempt to click anywhere within the LabVIEW program it responds with a ding sound. Any suggestions to how I can fix this issue?

Hi,

What version of DAQmx do you have installed? You could try force reinstalling it, this solves many related problems.

Ok so that would be DAQmx 18.0.0. You can force reinstall that specific driver with the instructions I linked above. To download the DAQmx installer, please go to:

NI DAQmx 18.0.0

I attempted to force reinstall NI-DAQmx but unfortunately this did not fix my issue.

Hey I was looking at other discussion forums to see if I could find something similar to your issue. I found this post, it has a few new ideas. I would pay closer attention to the Ideas Mark suggests.
