Refreshing a Release Registration

If you experience instability while running applications, refreshing the release registration may solve the problem.

The following procedure shows an example of refreshing the registration of the current default release.

Prerequisites

  • You have a release of any version installed.

  • You have administrator privileges on the system.

Procedure

  1. Open the Release Switcher. The current default release appears in the Switch From Release field.
  2. In the Switch To Release field, use the dropdown list or Browse button to select the same release as appears in the Switch From Release field.
  3. Click OK.

Results

If you refreshed a pre-VX release, the configurator.exe program runs with the ‑clean and ‑version= options and removes the Start menu items. The configurator.exe program runs again and creates a new registration and the Start menu items.

If you refreshed a VX release, the registrator.exe program runs with the ‑clean option and removes the registration and Start menu items. The registrator.exe program runs again and creates a new registration and the Start menu items.
