Jim Kring Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 VIPM 2023 for Windows has been upgraded to use the LabVIEW 2022 Q3 64-bit Runtime Engine. Before we get into the details, let's address a big question... Question: Will VIPM 2023 work with older versions of LabVIEW (including 32-bit LabVIEW)? Answer: Absolutely, Yes! Here are the details. VIPM is actually written in LabVIEW and is built as a stand-alone executable. It uses VI Server to communicate with LabVIEW for various things and works fine with older LabVIEW versions (including 32-bit and 64-bit LabVIEW). Also, we've made an improvement to VIPM's installer so that it downloads the LabVIEW Runtime Engine installer from NI's servers, only when it's needed. So, if you already have the LabVIEW 2022 runtime engine installed on your system, VIPM's installer won't download or install it. Also, installing the LabVIEW 2022 runtime engine will install NI Package Manager on your system. This is how you install modern versions of LabVIEW, so that shouldn't be a problem for VIPM users 😉 This means that the VIPM 2023 installer is much smaller than previous releases, which means it's faster to download, install, and update. 🚀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
