From Friday, April 19th (11:00 PM CDT) through Saturday, April 20th (2:00 PM CDT), 2024, ni.com will undergo system upgrades that may result in temporary service interruption.
We appreciate your patience as we improve our online experience.
The section "Distributing VIs" in chapter 12 of the LabVIEw User Manual covers this. In order to be upgraded, the VI must have the diagram (or "source code"). If you have third party VIs without diagrams, you'll hve to request an upgrade. If these are VIs you created yourself, the way to avoid the problem in the future and still protect your code is to use password protection instead of saving without diagrams.

Yes. there are many revisions in LabVIEW as it develops. Most notably with the resources that new versions require that old versions don't support. Most versions of LabVIEW now support saving code into older formats and all formats are foward compiled into the latest version (sometimes via some intermediate versions).
