Does "VISA Find Resource.vi" need administrative rights?

Solved!
Go to solution

I developed an application with LabVIEW 2017 SP1 where I use "VISA Find Resource.vi".

One of my customers has problems when the user who runs the application has no administrative rights on the PC.

 

The OS is Win 7 x64 + SP1.

 

Does this vi require administrative rights to work

I am using Windows 7 64bit SP1 and "VISA Find Resource.vi" does not need to be run as administrator.

 

If your application is having problems and need administrator privileges. 

  1. Right click on the executable
  2. Select Properties from the pop up menu
  3.  Select the Compatibility tab
  4. Check the "Run this program as administrator" box under Privilege Level.
    1. Note: You will probably need the Administrator password to set this, but you only have to do it once.
  5. From then on the program should have all the needed privileges.

Problem is solved after having updated DAQmx drivers to version 17.0 too.
