Getting started window keeps appearing after testing with Teststand

[JonathanGreen]

Hello everyone,

I have a question. We have a test station for production, and every time they run a test with TestStand, at the beginning and end of the test, the GSW appears. This is very annoying and I haven't found any solution for it. Does anyone have an idea what might help?

I already tried in LabVIEW:

Tools>Options>Environment> "Skip Getting Started Window", this just opens a blank vi during testing

Modify the labview.ini file, with the command: showNoNavDialog=True, also opens blank vi

Using:

Labview 15

Teststand 16

Windows 10

Greetings,

Jonathan

Have you tried to use the LabVIEW Runtime Engine instead of the LabVIEW Development Environment?

[JonathanGreen]

Yes, but we would need to switch every time we want to test or develop. We dont want to use the runTime Engine untill every testprogram works. Untill then we need to surpress the Getting Started window somehow.

You probably also saw this post (changing TestStand Window Activation on the run options tab of the step properties) but just in case... 

[JonathanGreen]

Saw it and tried it. But with the second solution nothing happened. Instead of keeping Teststand in the front, the LabVIEW Getting Started Window was kept in the foreground.
