NI Package Manager Stuck on Loading Screen

[shaferemma]

I downloaded LabVIEW from this link: https://www.ni.com/en-us/support/downloads/software-products/download.labview.html#305508

When I open the file, the NI Package Manager opens. And, the NI Package Manager is stuck on the screen pictured. It is stuck on the loading screen. I don't know why this happens. All I wan is the free trial of LabVIEW on my computer.

Can someone help?

Try running the installer as an Administrator.

I have ni package manager installed on offline machine. When I start it (under admin rights), it takes 260 seconds to open the GUI. I think it is because 2 online feeds defined in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI Package Manager\Settings\ni-package-manager-released.ini and both have timeout 100s, defined in:

C:\Program Files\National Instruments\NI Package Manager\Settings\ni-package-manager-defaults.ini

; Time that CURL will use to timeout if the server is not responsive.
timeout=1000000    - I think this number represents100 seconds, is it?

I experimented with this setting but with no success.

NI package manager GUI installed on online machine will open in several seconds.

Interesting solutions are here:

but there is missing one last solution for offline machine!

Question to NI: Can you configure NIPM to open fast also on offline machine?
