Anyone seen this error? I am getting it on both Windows 7 and Windows 10 machines.
When this error is thrown, the dialogs for license agreements are blank, the software appears to install and then throws a bunch of other errors.

Is this only happening when you install LabVIEW 2017? Where is the installer coming from?

I have seen this before. I suspect it has something to do with the core Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable (I have 2015 on the machine) but I am unsure what that issue is. Currently, I am attempting to install 2017 from DVD; haven't tried this with other distributions. Thanks.

While I've certainly had issues with LabVIEW 2017 (to the extent I'm not installing it for myself or my colleagues), I have successfully installed it on both Windows 7 and Windows 10, when it was the only LabVIEW installation. I installed from the NI Software Bundle Spring 2017 USB-64 "kit". My installation included LabVIEW 2017, VIPM, Vision Development, DAQmx, VISA, and Vision Acquisition modules.
I admit that I don't have the courage to install LabVIEW NXT 1.0 at the current time (I've spent quite a bit of time reclaiming my Laptop from LabVIEW 2017 Installation Woes).

Meh...I would not install NXT given limited backwards compatibility. Personally, I would prefer they focus on supporting other OS's and 64-bit rather than bringing the questionable Visual Studio experience to the LV environment. I am guessing that NXT will either never be fully developed or it is a long way off (look at the 64-bit rollout if you need an example). Fingers crossed.
All this being said, I don't believe my experience with 2017 is something associated with other versions on my machine (although most of my different versions sit in different VMs). I honestly believe that I have something going on with the redistributable VC20xx.
