Use this page of the Installer Properties dialog box to add files to include in the installer.

This page includes the following components:

Option Description
Project Files View

Displays the files in the LabVIEW project as they appear on disk, including files generated by build specifications in the project.

Files that a build specification includes appear dimmed in the tree because you cannot add or remove individual files generated by a build specification. You can add or remove only the entire build specification.
Destination View

Specifies the location and directory structure of the files when you install them.

The folders in the Destination View directory with a LabVIEW prefix correspond to the following locations:
  • [LabVIEW x Examples]—Files you include in this folder install to the labview\examples directory.
  • [LabVIEW x Help]—Files you include in this folder install to the labview\help directory.
  • [LabVIEW x Instrument Drivers]—Files you include in this folder install to the labview\instr.lib directory.
  • [LabVIEW x Palettes]—Files you include in this folder install to the labview\menus directory.
  • [LabVIEW x Run-Time]—Files you include in this folder install to the Shared\LabVIEW Run-Time\x directory, where x is the LabVIEW version currently in use.
  • [LabVIEW x User Libraries]—Files you include in this folder install to the labview\user.lib directory.
  • [LabVIEW x]—Files you include in this folder install to the labview directory.
The folders in the Destination View directory that do not have a LabVIEW prefix correspond to Microsoft Installer (MSI) properties. Refer to the Microsoft Developer Network website at msdn.microsoft.com for more information about the corresponding Microsoft Installer (MSI) properties:
  • [All Users Desktop]—Files you include in this folder install to the location that corresponds to the DesktopFolder property.

  • [Program Files Common]—Files you include in this folder install to the location that corresponds to the CommonFilesFolder property or the CommonFiles64Folder property.
