Uninstall TestStand development environment

[ArtTCG]

My customer has a full installation of TestStand 2.0 and LabVIEW 6.1 on a machine that they wanted me to configure with a run-time TestStand/LabVIEW for use on the production floor. The run-time software is up and running fine but I would like to uninstall all of the development TestStand and LabVIEW programs as they are not needed anymore and leave the run-time items. How do I go about this?

ArtTCG,

You should be able to go to the Control Panel and then choose Add/Remove Programs. NI TestStand should appear in the list. Click Change/Remove and you can choose what components you want to remove. As long as you leave the TestStand Engine and the Operator Interface that you are using on that machine, you should be fine to uninstall other components.

I think for LabVIEW, you should have 2 entries. One for the LabVIEW Development System and one for the NI LabVIEW Run-Time Engine. I have the 6.1 Run-Time Engine installed and it shows up in Add/Remove Programs, but I don't have the LabVIEW 6.1 Development Environment installed so that might change how it appears.

If you need more help, let me know and I'll try to find someone in our LabVIEW group t
o help out with that part.
