Bob Schor Posted February 16 Report Share Posted February 16 I recently installed LabVIEW 2021 on a PC that is not allowed to access the Internet. Used a combination of the Offline Installation (similar to the USB Key of Blessed Memory) plus some interesting communication with NI (very clear instructions) to (a) get a Computer ID, (b) go to an NI Web Site and type in relevant information, including name, license #, and Product, get by return screen a 20-character Activation code, enter code on "locked" PC, and (as we say) "Bob's your Uncle", it is activated. So now I want to add the OpenG Toolkit. I have other PCs where I've installed this easily using VIPM, but the machine I need to place this on has ... no Internet. Is there an "off-line" way to install the OpenG Toolkit? [I'm only using a few of the things in OpenG -- I usually install the Toolkit, which brings in about 80% of the packages listed, but I don't mind doing a one-at-a-time bit of work, either ...] I'm sure it's not quite as simple as copying a bunch of files and folders from my "work" PC, which does have Internet, and where the relevant packages are installed, as there are probably "behind-the-scenes" links and other goodies that are best done "automagically" by VIPM ....

Bob Schor Posted February 20 Author Report Share Posted February 20 Figured it out. Needed to copy 4 folders from a PC where OpenG for LabVIEW 2021 was installed via VIPM. The four folders all start in C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LV2021. From here, the four files are: user.lib\_OpenG.lib menus\Categories\OpenG menus\Controls\OpenG examples\OpenG Bob Schor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kring Posted February 29 Report Share Posted February 29 @Bob Schor you'll find the actual packages in the C:\ProgramData\JKI\VIPM\cache folder. You can copy those to another computer and install the packages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
