Problem installing the LabView (v7.1 or v8.0)

Asked By Everthon Reis 0 points N/A Posted on - 06/14/2012

Whenever I try to install the LabView (v7.1 or v8.0) I am always getting this error:

"Error 1402: Could not open key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREClassesLVDB.ApplicationCLSID.

I have executive privileges on my software and I am able to qualify the key manually using the registry editor. When I click the "Yes" to continue the installation it gives me a dead end. But then, when I commence LabView I get the multitude error notification:

"The requested feature is unavailable on "localhost"".

Can anyone help me, so that I can get LabView run properly? I would be very grateful for the help you give me.

Problem installing the LabView (v7.1 or v8.0)

Which OS are you using and which version of LabVIEW are you trying to install? This error is coming from the Windows Installer and it seems it is not specific to LabVIEW necessarily. Can you install any other software fine on this computer?
I would suggest disabling virus checkers/scanners if you have any, and try installing LabVIEW. Also, the following document from the following link:

And it might be helpful. You can also try reinstalling the latest version of Windows Installer (MSI installer) from Microsoft and see if that fixes the problem.
