Software Fails to Launch on Vista

Primary Software: Other NI Software>>NI License Manager
Primary Software Version: 3.2
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: LabVIEW Development Systems>>LabVIEW Professional Development System

Problem: I installed my NI software on Microsoft Vista without launching it.  Then, I logged in as Guest and attempted to launch my NI software.  Why did my NI software fail to launch? 

Solution:

You must launch NI software and choose to evaluate or activate when you are logged into an account other than Guest.  Then, you can log into a Guest account and successfully launch NI software. 

Due to the restrictions that Vista imposes when a user is logged into a Guest account, NI software cannot write to the license files in order to transform them for evaluation or activation.
