Hello,

Will there be an MSI version made of V3 PWB for deployment via gpo ?

regards

Sal.

Eventually.

However PWB does not need to be installed. Since PWB is fully self contained, copying the PWB folder from computer to computer is all that is needed.

Hi scott,

Ive also just noticed there is no longer these settings in PWBv3.ini file

PWBv2.ini
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ScreenSaver]
EnableScreenSaver=True
ScreenSaverSeconds=180
EnablePolicyScreenSaver=False
PolicyScreenSaverSeconds=10
DisableScreenSaverOnPolicyClose=False
DisableScreenSaverOnClose=False
WindowsScreenSaverExe=
WindowsScreenSaverMinutes=3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
can these be simply added to PWBv3.ini and will still function ?

kind regards

Sal.

The functionality would need to be added to PWB v3 in order for the INI settings to work. We are building on the basic version of PWB version 3 and adding functionality as it is needed.

The screen saver settings would normally only be used when running PWB as the Windows shell. Using HideGUI is a much better way of running PWB as the only application and when using HideGUI you can use the Windows Policies to control the screen saver.
