Left-click on Properties. The Properties will appear onscreen. The shortcut tab should be shown as selected. You will be able to add the below options to the end of the program location shown in the Target: tab. There must be a space between the options and the last quote.



Example - To have the HWebAgent always start Maximized enter the below options:


“C:Program FilesHWebHWebAgent.exe” /WINDOWSTATE=2 x:hweb.ini

Procedure

NOTE: Whenever adding command line parameters ie (/Desktop=, /AltCache, /Caption=) Please list them alphabetically. This is only for visual assistance, so that if you ever need to verify a parameter is being used in a shortcut one can look quickly rather than back and forth in the shortcut. If you find shortcuts not using this method, either via Terminals Services OR when you are onsite, please correct them to this new procedure.
