CA Lab v1.7.3.3 - Release Notes
We are pleased to announce another enhancement to the stable 1.7.3.x branch. The new setup no longer requires administrative rights. Additionally, the installation location has been moved to %APPDATA%. This change facilitates the use of CA Lab with parallel instances of LabVIEW, and separates CA Lab from LabVIEW without any loss of functionality. For more details, refer to the new post_install.html.
