Warmboot
A warmboot reboots the MX9 without erasing any registry data. Configuration settings and data in RAM are preserved
during a warmboot. Network sessions are lost and any data in running applications that has not been previously saved may
be lost. CAB files already installed remain installed.
There are several warmboot methods available:
• Using the Registry control panel tap the Warmboot button. The MX9 immediately warmboots.
• Using the Start menu, select Start > Run and type WARMBOOT in the text box. Press Enter. The MX9 immediately
warmboots. The WARMBOOT text command is not case-sensitive. The text typed in the text box can be upper or lower
case or a combination of upper and lower case letters.
• Using the keypad, press the Ctl key and release it, press the Alt key and release it, press the Del key combination and
release it. The MX9 immediately warmboots.
Clearing Persistent Storage / Reset to Default Settings
Use the Registry control panel Restart button to set the MX9 registry back to factory defaults. No other clearing is available
or necessary.
Folders Copied at Startup
The following folders are created in the System folder, they are copied at startup:
This function copies only the folder contents, no sub-folders.
The Windows\Startup folder is not copied on startup because copying this folder has no effect on the system or an incorrect
effect.
Files in the Startup folder are executed, but only from System\Startup. Windows\Startup is parsed too early in the boot pro-
cess so it has no effect.
Executables in System\Startup must be the actual executable, not a shortcut, because shortcuts are not parsed by Launch.
Saving Changes to the Registry
The MX9 saves the registry when you:
•Tap Start > Run then type Warmboot. Tap OK.
• Perform a Suspend / Resume function (by pressing the Pwr key and then pressing it again).
The registry save process takes 0 – 3 seconds. If nothing has been changed, nothing is saved (e.g., 0 seconds).
The registry is automatically saved every 10 seconds if anything has changed. It is also saved every tenth time the registry
settings are changed. Registry settings are changed when control panel applet (e.g., Date/Time) parameters are changed
by the user and a warm boot was not performed afterward.
