21.6 Configuring Browser Settings

The Browser settings are configuration settings that apply only to the Application Browser view. When a user opens the Application Browser view, these settings, along with any settings configured on the User page (see Configuring User Settings), are applied.

  1. Make sure the Launcher Configuration dialog box is open. If it is not, see Accessing the Application Launcher Configuration Settings.

  2. Click Browser to display the configuration settings that apply to the Application Browser view.

  3. Configure the following settings:

    Close Application Launcher on browser exit: This setting applies only to pre-ZENworks 7 versions of Application Launcher. Beginning with ZENworks 7, Application Launcher does not use this setting. Instead, it keeps track of the number of times its been called and shuts down only after the last view (Application Explorer, Application Window, or Application Browser) is exited.

    With pre-ZENworks 7 versions, when a user opens the Application Browser view in his or her Web browser, Application Launcher is started if necessary. Specify whether or not you want Application Launcher to shut down when the user closes the Web browser to exit the Application Browser.

    You should set this option to Yes only when users are using the Application Browser and neither of the other views (Application Window or Application Explorer). If users are also using the Application Window view or Application Explorer view, having Application Launcher close when the Web browser is exited also causes the Application Window and Application Explorer views to close.

    The setting values are Yes, No, and Unset. The default value (No) is used if you select Unset and no parent container includes a customized setting.
