How Can I Setup TWedge 3 to Run As Service

For manual configuration, follow the instructions in the user manual Appendix D: Run TWedge as Service

For scripting these configuration steps (e.g. as part of a custom setup), follow the guide below:

Specify the TWG file that should be automatically opened by the service during startup:

1. Navigate to the following file:

   C:\ProgramData\TEC-IT\TWedge\3.6\twedge.bcopt

2. Edit or overwrite this file with your presets.
3. Enter the full path to the TWG configuration file in the designated XML node:

   <ServiceConfigFile>>C:/Project/MyTWedgeConfig.twg</ServiceConfigFile>

4. After making changes to this file, if the service is already running, it must be restarted. This can be done using the following commands:

   net stop "TEC-IT TWedge"
   net start "TEC-IT TWedge"

To configure the service to start automatically when the system boots, execute the following command:

sc config "TEC-IT TWedge" start=auto

It's possible to configure the service to allow interaction with the Desktop, although this functionality cannot be guaranteed. Use the following command:

sc config "TEC-IT TWedge" type=interact type=own
