Used this a while back. There is a readme file that explains how to point the updates to a central site. I just point that to a blank string. There is also a reg key which sets the app to check for updates the first time it starts up. I have a feeling one is HKLM\Software\Autocad\Expressviewer and the other is HKCR\....Did not work out how to disable splash screen. -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 01 December 2003 18:54 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Anyone using Autodesk Express Viewer 4? (or other CAD viewers) Anyone out there using Autodesk Express Viewer? It's a free viewer for dwf files. www.autodesk.com I need to get rid of the autostart splash screen that pops up when a user launches the app. (It prompts the user to look for updates and has a "getting started" page) Anyone know of any other free CAD viewing utilities? _____ Brian Claus, A+, Network+, MCP Network Administrator WESCO Distribution, Inc. 225 West Station Square Drive, Suite 700 Pittsburgh, PA 15219-1122 Phone: 412-454-2412 Fax: 412-454-2540 bclaus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:bclaus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> _____ ******************************************************** This Week's Sponsor - ThinPrint .Print Server Engine Thinprint can help you save money, protect resources, simplify administration, save time and increase flexibility by solving all of your printing needs. http://www.thinprint.com ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thethin.net/links.cfm Domains currently for sale by The Kenzig Group http://www.kenzig.com/serv01.htm New Site: Free Weblogs! http://www.blogvortex.com *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm *********************************************************************************** This e-mail is intended only for the addressee named above.
