Warmboot

Warmboot
A warmboot reboots the MX7 Tecton without erasing any registry data. Configuration settings and data in RAM are preserved
during a warmboot. Network sessions are lost and any data in running applications that has not been previously saved may be
lost. CAB files already installed remain installed.
There are several warmboot methods available:
Using the Registry, select
l
immediately warmboots.
Using the Start menu, select Start | Run and type WARMBOOT in the text box. Press Enter. The MX7 Tecton imme-
l
diately warmboots. The WARMBOOT text command
Using the keypad, press the Ctl key and release it, press the Alt key and release it, press the Del key and release it. The
l
MX7 Tecton immediately warmboots.

Clearing Persistent Storage / Reset to Default Settings

Use the Registry control panel Restart button to set the MX7 Tecton registry back to LXE factory defaults. No other clearing is
available or necessary.

Folders Copied at Startup

The following folders are copied on startup:
System\Desktop
System\Favorites
System\Fonts
System\Help
System\Programs
This function copies only the folder contents, no sub-folders.
The following folders are NOT copied on startup:
Windows\AppMgr
l
Windows\Recent
l
Windows\Startup
l
Because copying these has no effect on the system or an incorrect effect.
Files in the Startup folder are executed, but only from System\Startup. Windows\Startup is parsed too early in the boot process
so it has no effect.
Executables in System\Startup must be the actual executable, not a shortcut, because shortcuts are not parsed by Launch.

Saving Changes to the Registry

The MX7 Tecton saves the registry when you:
Perform a Suspend / Resume function (by pressing the Pwr key and then pressing it again).
l
The registry save process takes 0 – 3 seconds. If nothing has been changed, nothing is saved (e.g. 0 seconds)
The registry is automatically saved every 5 seconds. It is also saved every 256th time the registry settings are changed.
Registry settings are changed when control panel applet (e.g. Date/Time) parameters are changed by the user. A warmboot is
not required.

The text typed in the text box can be upper or lower case or a combination of upper and lower case letters.
