This happened after I tried to install LabVIEW 2020 (32-bit, Base, Full, Community). I tried following the article: An Error Occurred While Installing a Package in NIPM. However, it didn't work out well-the problem persists. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this? I needed the software for school assignments 😕
Thank you very much.

Hi,
I don't occur any problems installing NIPM packages. I had to reinstall the whole thing as I found missing icons in the program.
I have occurred an error that prevented me from installing the full LabVIEW 2020 through the NIPM. I tried reinstalling and following the guide in Error occurred while installing a package in NIPM
To no avail 😞 I just want the working program of LabVIEW bit-32 but the error prevented me from installing. I checked where the error come from. Its from the NI uninstaller. I tried to install only that in the NIPM. The same error popped out.
Why is this happening?

LabVIEW is a very large and complex system of programs, utilities, drivers, etc. NIPM was created to manage them, and to make Installations easier, but it is still very much a Work in Progress, with few instructions on "good practices" for installing LabVIEW.
The key step, in my experience, is to "install slowly", meaning one package at a time, leaving Device Drivers for the final step. Unlike the installation routines of LabVIEW 2013-2016, which had a Setup Utility that walked you through the steps of LabVIEW, Modules and Toolkits, and then Drivers, and installed them in that order, NIPM doesn't seem to have an "orderly" process of Module Installation, and I suspect this causes problems.
When an NIPM-based LabVIEW installation "goes wrong", my practice is as follows:

Please do not ask the same question twice. I replied to your later post 20 minutes ago.
