You can create a desktop shortcut that launches a BlueZone
session along with an preconfigured BlueZone profile (configuration
file). In order for this feature to work, you must create at least
one BlueZone profile along with an associated desktop shortcut. These
files must be added to your BlueZone distribution image so that they
are available during the BlueZone installation process.
Prerequisites:
- In setup.ini, under [Program Group],
the UseGroup= entry must be set to Yes.
Yes is the default value.
- Install BlueZone Desktop using the default settings. Refer
to Installing BlueZone for more information.
Verify that you have installed all of the BlueZone emulators
that you want to make shortcuts for. Verify that you have installed
the BlueZone Session Manager.
- For each shortcut that you want to create, start the appropriate
BlueZone emulator, configure, save, and name each session. Refer
to Configuring sessions for
more information.
The profile names that you create are also the names that
are assigned to the shortcut.
- Open the BlueZone Session Manager.
An icon for each session you created displays.
- Highlight a session and click the Create Desktop
Shortcut icon on the Session Manager toolbar.
A desktop shortcut is created for each session and placed
on your desktop.
- Repeat step 4 for each session.
- Locate the following files and save them in your BlueZone
Desktop distribution image folder:
- BlueZone profiles for each session
The profiles are
saved to: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My
Documents\BlueZone\Config
- Shortcut files for each session
The shortcut files
are saved to: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop
Note: Windows
does not display the file extensions of desktop shortcut files in
Windows Explorer; however, if you use the Windows command prompt to
display your files, the desktop shortcuts have a file extension of .LNK.
- On a test machine, install BlueZone using your BlueZone
distribution image. Verify that the desktop shortcuts are created
and start the configured BlueZone sessions.
