What is the Auto-Launcher?

The Auto-Launcher is a Windows program designed to help you get into the E-Catalog faster. With the Auto-Launcher, you can type your username and password once, and from then on it will be remembered for you. Simply open the Auto-Launcher program, and after a short, user-definable delay, you will be connected to your E-Catalog.

That’s all great, but I want the technical information

The Auto-Launcher is a wrapper built to facilitate starting a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connection to the online E-Catalog. Older users may remember using the E-Catalog by manually setting up an RDP connection from their Windows machine. With the Auto-Launcher users are given the benefit of having their logins saved, as well as not having to worry if the underlying configuration changes, say the IP Address or RDP login information. This is because the Auto-Launcher has an update feature, which allows Millwork Development to push out changes as they’re needed.
