Auto Re-Launch
Auto Re-Launch
Default is Enabled.
When enabled for a specific application. automatically re-launches it (subject to the specified Auto Re-Launch Delay in
seconds) after it terminates. This option allows the Administrator to disable the re-launch operation. AppLock cannot prevent all
applications from closing. When an application that AppLock cannot prevent from closing terminates, perhaps because of an
error condition, AppLock re-launches the application when this option is enabled.
Note: If Allow Close is enabled and both Auto Re-launch and Manual (Launch) are disabled, the application cannot be
restarted for the end-user or by the end-user after the application terminates.
Retries
Default is 0 tries. Retries is the number of times AppLock will try to re-launch the application. The retry count is reset after an
application is successfully launched and controlled by AppLock. Valid values are between 0 (no tries) and 99 tries or -1 for
infinite. Infinite tries ends when the application successfully launches.
Delay
Default is 0 seconds (no delay). Delay is the amount of time AppLock waits prior to re-launching an application that has
terminated. The delay is specified in seconds. Valid values are between 0 (no delay) and 99 seconds.
AppLock must also be configured to automatically re-launch an application. To AppLock, application termination by the end-
user is indistinguishable from application termination for any other reason.
Manual (Launch)
Default is Disabled. Enabling this option allows the end-user to launch the specified application(s). Upon bootup completion an
application with Manual enabled is listed on the Switchpad accompanied by a checkmark that indicates the application is
currently active or available for Launching. When an application name is tapped by the end-user, the application is launched (if
inactive) and brought to the foreground.
Applications set up with Manual (Launch) enabled may or may not be launched at bootup. This function is based on the
application’s Auto At Boot setting. The applications have been listed as approved applications for end-user manual launch
using the Switchpad menu structure. The approved applications are listed on the Switchpad. A checkmark indicates the
applications active status.
When Manual (Launch) is disabled for an application, and Allow Close is enabled for the application, when the end-user closes
the specific application it is no longer available (shown) on the Switchpad.
When Auto At Boot and Manual (Launch) are both disabled for a specific application, the application is 1) not placed on the list
of approved applications for end-user manual launch and 2) never launched, and 3) not displayed on the Switchpad.
