Application startup behavior
After startup, the IBI-helpMe Client application, by default, initially creates a copy of itself in the local user application data directory, then executes this instance and terminates. This step is performed to reduce network dependence to a minimum. In this way, the application can continue to run after an interruption to the network connection. The creation of a copy in the local application data directory can be prevented by using the /NoLocalCopy start parameter. This parameter should however only be used if the application is already started from a local storage location.
If the locally stored application runs successfully, the information from the configuration file will be loaded.
The following diagram shows the behavior of the application after startup:
