when using NI ELVISmx Instrument Launcher it takes too long to open myDAQ

myDAQ hardware when connected USB is successfully installed on all 15 computers in a classroom environment and seen in Device Manager.     When the application 'NI ELVISmx for myDAQ' is opened, the Instrument Launcher displays successfully on the desktop.  The problem is however, when one of the buttons are selected ie:  DMM or SCOPE, it takes 2 to 3 minutes  to open (it is a white blank until it appears), or it will eventually say 'not responding' or it opens immediately with 'Launcher has stopped working'.  This occurs on all the computers in the classroom.

Hello meoow2u,

 

Has the performance of the other software on these machines been affected since ELVISmx was installed, or is the Instrument Launcher the only program exhibiting this behavior?

 

Regards,

The solution to the problem was installing the newest drivers for Ni ELVISmx 14.0 which also installs Ni myDAQ 14.0 and is compatible with Labview 2011 and later.

After the installation, when opening Instrument Launcher and selecting an instrument it opened within a couple seconds instead of a couple minutes.
