Preventing multiple session launch

If you are using profile mode, it is possible for users to open multiple BlueZone sessions from a single profile (configuration file). In other words, multiple BlueZone sessions can share a single profile.

If you do not want this behavior, you can configure BlueZone so that only one session can be opened per profile. This is accomplished by turning off profile sharing in the BlueZone default.ini file.

If profile sharing is disabled, when a user attempts to start a second BlueZone session from the same profile, no error message displays. Instead, the already open BlueZone session is given focus.

  1. On the web server, navigate to the site and template folder that you want to change. For example:
    C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MySite\template
  2. Open the default.ini file in any text editor.
  3. In the [BlueZone] section, locate the ProfileSharing=Yes entry.
  4. Change Yes to No.
  5. Save and close the file.
    From this point on, new launch folders that are created have the profile sharing feature disabled for all sessions.

    If you have already created one or more launch folders, you must go to each existing launch folder and edit the default.ini file as described above.

Tip: It is possible to enable the profile sharing feature individually for each existing launch folder. This is accomplished by editing the default.ini file located in only the launch folders that you want to change.
