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 ter-
mination 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 check-
mark 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 dis-
played on the Switchpad.
Allow Close
Default is Disabled. When enabled, the associated application can be closed by the end-user.
This option allows the administrator to configure applications that consume system resources to be termi-
nated if an error condition occurs or at the end-user’s request. Error conditions may generate a topmost
popup requiring an end-user response, memory resource issues requiring an end-user response, etc. Also at
the administrator’s discretion, these types of applications can be started manually (see Manual [Launch]) by
the end-user.
End User Internet Explorer (EUIE)
AppLock supports applications that utilize Internet Explorer, such as .HTML pages and JAVA applications. The
end user can run an application by entering the application name and path in Internet Explorer’s address bar.
To prevent the end user from executing an application using this method, the address bar and Options settings
dialog are restricted in Internet Explorer. This is accomplished by creating an Internet Explorer that is used in end
user mode: End-user Internet Explorer (EUIE.EXE). The EUIE executes the Internet Explorer application in full
screen mode which removes the address bar and status bar. The Options Dialog is also removed so the end user
cannot re-enable the address bar.
The administrator specifies the EUIE by checking the Internet checkbox in the Application tab of the Administrator
applet. The Internet application should then be entered in the Application text box.
When the Internet checkbox is enabled, the Menu and Status check boxes are available.
Enabling the Menu checkbox displays the EUIE menu which contains navigation functions like Back, Forward,
Home, Refresh, etc., functions that are familiar to most Internet Explorer users. When the Menu checkbox is
blank, the EUIE menu is not displayed and Navigation functions are unavailable.
When the Status checkbox is enabled, the status bar displayed by EUIE gives feedback to the end-user when they
are navigating the Internet.
