Manage application settings

InTouch application settings, such as the application path, are stored in the Win.ini file. The Win.ini file is located in the below directory:

C:\Users\<User Name>\AppData\Local\Wonderware

WindowMaker runs as an administrative user and WindowViewer can run as an administrative or standard user. The standard user cannot access the Win.ini directory of the administrative user profile. Therefore, as the application developer, you need to copy the common Win.ini attributes to the standard user’s Win.ini profile when you develop the application. This ensures that all the attributes that are set under the administrative user are also available when WindowViewer is started by the standard user. You must copy the attributes each time you make changes to the common Win.ini attributes.
