Follow these steps to install and run the Desktop Launcher

  1. Open a browser and go to http://<platform host>:<platform port>/launch/desktop/launcher
  2. Download the Desktop Launcher (jar or exe file).
  3. Double-click the downloaded file.

If you choose to run an .exe file, you can download it from the software package that you receive under  <package name>/release/complete/desktop/launcher/bundles/.

Windows associates  .jar  files with a Java version. This decides which Java version the desktop installer will run on. The association between filetype and program is set in the windows registry in a parameter called jar file. If you choose to run the .exe file, the correct Java version will be detected automatically.

For further information about how to configure the Desktop Launcher, see 1.1.1 Desktop Launcher in the Desktop User's Guide.
