Autostart Configuration for the Workstation Client

Introduction

By default, the Mendix Workstation Client runs automatically after system startup. You can change this behavior by modifying the autostart settings for your operating system.

Modifying Autostart Settings

After installing the Workstation Client, you can modify its autostart settings by following the usual process for your operating system.

For more information, refer to the documentation of your operating system, such as the following topics:

• Modifying login items in macOS - Change Login Items & Extensions settings on Mac

Stopping the Workstation Client Manually

The Close button closes the Client window but does not terminate the application. It continues to run in the background. To completely quit the Client, right-click its icon in the Windows systray and select Quit. This action is only available in Developer Mode.

Alternatively, you can stop the Workstation Client process by using Windows Task Manager.
