Local Launcher for Annapurna.

 

Annapurna Launcher.

 In some configurations, where Annapurna is being used remotely from the server, it can be beneficial to have Annapurna installed on a local PC.

To manage this, AnnapurnaStart has been created.

Installation.

AnnapurnaStart needs to be installed on the local PC. There is an installer for this. This can be downloaded from

https://www.hawkstonedesign.co.uk/downloads/AnnapurnaStart_Install.exe

It is suggested that this is installed in the “Annapurna Progs” folder on the server and this can then be used to update the local PCs.

The installation will create a shortcut on the desktop.

Operation.

On the first time, AnnapurnaStart will ask for the location of the “Annapurna progs” folder on the server where Annapurna is installed. 

When this is set then a log in screen will appear.  Log in with the Annapurna credentials.

The software will then check for updates to Annapurna. If there are updates then these will be installed on the local machines. When Annapurna is up to date then Annapurna will start and the AnnapurnaStart will close.
