Labview 7.1

[DShrestha]

How can I install LabView 7.1 in WIndows 10? I recently upgraded my OS to Windows 10, and not been able to install LV7.1. Does anybody if it can be done, or I am screwed?

LV 2015SP1 I believe is the first version that officially supported Win10. Maybe a VM of WinXP would work?

Sorry

Try installing it in Compatibility Mode.

Thanks. How do you do it? Please explain.

I leave it as an exercise in learning how to Google.

Get software for creating a VM - such as Oracle VM Virtualbox, VMware Workstation Player, Microsoft Hyper-V, etc

Get the XP OS and install on your virtual machine

Install LabVIEW on your VM with XP.

It still may not work for you if you need hardware access, I have no idea how the VMs limit ports, USB devices, etc

Why does it need to be LV 7.1 + Win10?  Trying to support an ancient PC with your Win10 PC?

[DShrestha]

Thanks. Will do.

I upgraded my OS to Win10, and have a LV7.1 that I still like to continue to use.

What's stopping you from upgrading to the latest version?
