Cannot open VI

Hello,

 

I'm trying to open a .VI file with LabVIEW 8.0 but Open fails with error message:

 

################################

 

LabVIEW: VI is not loadable.

 

In a built application, this might be because the VI being loaded:

 

- was last compiled for a different OS, in which case you need to save the VI on the current platform.

- is a polymorphic VI, which can not be loaded in

 

An error occurred loading VI 'scan_xyz_from_file.vi'.

LabVIEW load error code 15: Could not load default data.

 

################################ 

 

Same result if I try to load it as a SubVI from another VI. 

 

Any ideas what's going wrong? VI was working properly till last week. Maybe Windows corrupted the file content? Can somebody take a look at the attached VI?

 

Many thanks in advance

Do you have a backup? Did you install any thing new during the last week?

Hi hazibuli,

 

so you learned today (the hard way) to make backups of your data on a regular basis Smiley Wink

 

Corruption of VIs may happen and it's not always LabVIEW's fault. Making backups saves you a lot of time when it happens...

Best regards,
GerdW
