iFIX does not use a startup profile until the specified user attempts to start iFIX from the iFIX Startup dialog box or from the iFIX Startup command line (from a desktop shortcut or the Run dialog box, for example). If no iFIX startup profile exists for the user and you do not define any settings in the Default User Profile dialog box or provide command line settings to the iFIX Startup application, when you restart iFIX, it displays the information from the last time iFIX was run.
For more detailed information on the Startup Profile Manager, refer to the to Using the Startup Profile Manager section in the Setting up the Environment manual.
