LabVIEW version:

Created and tested with LabVIEW 8.2

Dependencies:

LabVIEW 8.2 or higher

Description:

Sometimes it happens that you're running a modal VI, you can't stop it and the only option you have to recover is to kill the LabVIEW process and start over.  Running this VI will present a list (on top of your other modal VI) of all VIs running in all contexts (except NI.* and JKI.*). Select the one giving you trouble and this VI will abort it.  Keep this VI handy and you'll never be stuck again.

Instructions:

*NOTE* This VI needs to be set to "Run when opened"; I purposely didn't set it for submission here because I think it's impolite.  Take a look at the Block Diagram, satisfy yourself that it's safe (here be dragons, rusty nails and all), set the execution to run when opened, put the VI where it'll be handy and commence developing code secure in the knowledge that a UI mistake won't lock your LabVIEW process.

Known Issues:

None

This program was inspired by this thread in the NI forum.
