AUTOLAUNCH_NOTES=nlnotes

October 11, 2006 – 8:06 am

When you run autorun.exe to launch the Lotus Notes® client installed on a USB drive, the Notes client installed on the operating system (OS) comes to focus instead. This behavior occurs only if the local version of Notes is already running on the OS. If the local version of Notes is not running, the Notes client from the USB will launch.

To run Notes from the USB drive even if a local version of Notes is running, do the following:

1. Open the autorun.ini file on the USB drive in edit mode.
2. Change the following line:

AUTOLAUNCH_NOTES=yes

to

AUTOLAUNCH_NOTES=nlnotes.exe

3. Save the file, and then run autorun.exe again.
