For information about versions of the .NET Framework and the drivers each supports, as well as the download location of the installer files, refer to .NET Resources for NI Hardware and Software.
Installation Instructions
NI installs NI-DMM using NI Package Manager. If you do not already have NI software installed, NI-DMM installs NI Package Manager to handle the installation of your NI software. Visit ni.com/r/NIPMDownload to download NI Package Manager. Refer to the NI Package Manager Manual for more information about installing, removing, and upgrading NI software using NI Package Manager.
Install an ADE, such as LabVIEW or LabWindows™/CVI™.
Visit ni.com/downloads/drivers and search for NI-DMM.
Click NI-DMM 21.3 and then the download link and run the executable (.exe) file.
Follow the instructions in the installation prompts. You may see access and security prompts during installation. Accept the prompts to complete the installation.
When the installer completes, select Restart in the dialog box that prompts you to restart, shut down, or restart later.
Note
If Windows Update is enabled, the installation process might hang if Windows Update interferes with the installation of Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Run-Time. Visit ni.com/r/exjq43 for more information and steps to resolve this issue.
If you purchased this product with an NI Software Suite or NI Product Bundle, use the installation media that shipped with your purchase to install this product.

Behavior Changes
NI-DMM 21.3: The NI-DMM Soft Front Panel has been replaced by InstrumentStudio, which is automatically installed when you install the NI-DMM driver. You can access InstrumentStudio in one of the following ways:
From the Windows start menu, select National Instruments»InstrumentStudio [year]. This launches InstrumentStudio and runs a soft front panel populated with devices detected on your system.
From Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), select a device and then click Test Panels.... This launches InstrumentStudio and runs a soft front panel for the device you selected.
The deprecated NI-DMM Soft Front Panel remains available for download. Visit Download and Install Legacy NI-DMM Soft Front Panels for more information.
NI-DMM 21.3: The NI-DMM Waveform Demo application is no longer included with NI-DMM. It remains available for download as a LabVIEW example.

Additional documentation is available online at ni.com/manuals.
LabVIEW NXG Examples
Launch LabVIEW and click the Learning tab.
LabVIEW lessons are located in the Lessons tab, and LabVIEW Examples are located in the Examples tab. Follow the instructions in the lessons and examples.
IVI Compliance Package Functionality
NI-DMM no longer installs IVI Compliance Package. NI-DMM supports IVI configuration and runtime, but no longer installs the following IVI components:
LabVIEW and CVI IVI class driver APIs for developing IVI interchangeable applications
IVI Class Simulation drivers
IVI-COM Adapters
To use these features, you must install ICP separately. ICP is included in the Software Platform Bundle media. A stand-alone web distribution is available from ni.com/downloads.
Automating the Installation of NI Products
You can automate the installation of most NI products using command-line arguments to suppress some or all of the installer user interface and dialog boxes.
If the NI product you are installing uses Microsoft .NET 4.0, the .NET installer may run before any NI software installs and may require a reboot before the installation of NI software begins. To avoid a .NET reboot, install .NET 4.0 separately before you install NI software.
For more information about automating the installation of NI products, refer to the following KnowledgeBase articles:
For more information about silent installations of individual NI products, refer to Customize and Automate Installation of a Single Installer.
For more information about silent installations of NI products in a suite, such as NI Developer Suite, refer to Customize and Automate Installation of a Suited Installer.
To determine what version of NI Installers your product contains, refer to Determine Type and Version of My NI Installer.
Using NI Software with Microsoft Windows 10
