Is the source code for the beta SD card utility available anywhere?
It requires LabView Runtime 7.1 in order to run but there appears to be no way to install runtime 7.1 on any windows machine after XP. Maybe if the source code is available it can be recompiled with a later runtime version? Or at least have a good starting point.

The SD card utility source code isn't currently released publicly anywhere.
The LabVIEW runtime engine reports that it isn't compatible with windows 10 but from our experience it works just fine. Have you already tried running our installer and starting our LJLogM/LJStreamM applications?
Well, the fundamental problem is getting runtime 7.1 installed at all. The installer bundled with the full labjack installation hangs indefinitely on a win7 pro 64 bit machine and it appears that NI does not have one that can be downloaded anywhere on their website anymore.
If there are examples of the runtime being installed on other systems though then this looks like it may just be a unique problem for me. Funny because I already have NI-DAQmx and runtimes for 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 installed for other systems and the 2009 runtime installed fine as well.
Everything else installed fine and Kipling talks to the unit with no problems. I actually have the unit happily logging to SD card the way I want with a lua script I just can't download the data.
I have not tried LJLogM or LJStreamM yet, I'm guessing they operate fine as long as they don't depend on runtime 7.1.
Please try restarting, then running the LabJack installer again (e.g. LabJack-2019-05-20.exe). Run that before starting any other LabVIEW programs.
If that doesn't work, you could try the LabVIEW's runtime engine installer, which we have made available here:
http://files.labjack.com/installers/LVRunTimeEng71.exe
Please do try LJLogM. I expect if that works, the SD card utility should work. I believe they were built with the same dependencies. Maybe worth checking.
Lastly, I found app note that suggests uninstalling other LabVIEW versions worked for some users trying to install LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 6.0.2. You shouldn't need to do that, but perhaps it's worth trying:

FYI for anyone who wants to try different NI runtimes but can't find a download on the NI website it is all available through FTP even though it isn't accessable from the installer download page anymore:
ftp://ftp.ni.com/support/labview/
For my problem that was a deadend though. Runtime 7.1, 7.0, 6.1 and anything else older than 2009 hung indefinitely on install while versions after that did not.
I uninstalled all labview runtime versions and still had the same install problem.
I did eventually find a magic bullet . While the 7.1 installer was hung in the background I opened up the NI Software manager and started the "modify" dialog for NI-DAQmx 17.0. The 7.1 runtime installer instantly completed the install. Who knows why but it worked.
I have also installed this on multiple other windows 7 computers and had no problem installing on them.
Incidentally, I did test LJLogM and it does have the same labview runtime 7.1 dependancy.
Thanks for posting that helpful information.
