ID: 610307
Description: On a machine that has NI PXI Platform Services, NI-VISA Runtime, or NI-XNET Runtime installed, one of the following issues can be caused by the WLAN Toolkit installer:
• niqpxi.dll is downgraded when you upgrade the WLAN Toolkit
• niqpxi.dll is removed when you uninstall the WLAN Toolkit
This might cause:
• PXI devices to disappear from the device tree in NI-MAX
• Incorrect detection of a PXI slot. The most obvious indication of this error is that the PXI slot of a device is reported as -1 in NI-MAX or when you query this information via the NI system configuration API.
The presence of the niqpxi dll can be verified at the installation location at C:\Windows\System32. The downgraded version of the niqpxi dll will have the version 1.0.0.49152 (1.0.0f0).
