Hi cbutcher

(i need to measure temperature via type E thermocouple by use NI DAQ USB-6003)
i try to avoid reinstallinig DAQ driver cause it take a lot of time (about 3 hours) is there have another solution ?
Thanks

Hopefully reinstallation of the DAQ component would be faster the second time (so long as you didn't delete the downloaded files). You should be able to find them somewhere like C:\National Instruments Downloads.
On your first point, you never HAVE to use DAQ Assistance. Internally, they use the DAQmx functions usually available under 'Measurement I/O > NI DAQmx' palette. These are more low-level functions that allow you to make measurements with NI DAQ devices (including the 6003).
An example VI is this Create Channel VI, set to an Analog Input > Thermocouple. This VI has many of the same inputs as are shown in the DAQ Assistant in the youtube video you linked.
However, you're unlikely to have the DAQmx functions if you don't have DAQ Assistant - I'm sure they're probably both installed together.

The bad thing is downloaded files was deleted. Can i uninstall DAQmx driver and reinstall DAQmx Driver by using DVD driver that came with my products ? .
(i try to repair DAQmx Driver, but didn't work)
and after that they still no DAQ mx.
Thanks.

In the screenshot, it shows you repairing DAQmx 15.0 (not 17).
I'm not sure if the DAQmx package is on a DVD - sorry. You don't need to reinstall LabVIEW, but the setup panel might show you installing LabVIEW. If you don't uninstall it first, it will 'install' very quickly, effectively just skipping. That might work out for you quickly if it is on the DVD.
