Newly build deployment installers do not installer Win7 32-bitAfter the release of Package Manager 20.7 on April 9, 2021, building 32-bit deployments in LabVIEW, TestStand, NI Package Builder, or LabWindows/CVI on 64-bit OS internet-connected systems create package installers that might fail to install on 32-bit OSes. Attempting to install the built deployment will result in the installer reporting that it is unable to locate ni-package-manager (or other Package Manager packages) with a compatible version and architecture. Note: deployments built before April 9, 2021, are not affected and should still install successfully. Workaround: Refer to the NI KnowledgeBase at www.ni.com/kb/ and enter the title "NI Package-Based Distribution Built on 64-Bit Computer Fails to Install On 32-Bit". |
