Chapter 3 — Configuring the Computer

The registry keys used by FolderCopy and other startup components to retrieve the folder names are as follows:

Flash File Store [HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\FlshDrv] “FolderName”=“Flash File Store”

SD Card (Storage Card) [HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMMC] “Folder”=“Storage Card”

During normal Windows system startup, there are Intermec-specific and non-Intermec components that require an orderly start to properly function. These non-Intermec components may also need to start themselves so the Windows device can function properly. Since there are possible configurations that come from using one or more optional built-in peripheral devices, the platform components starting on the next page are required to manage startup.

RunAutoRun

System components are installed and configured during the power up process from a single starting point. RunAutoRun (RunAutoRun.exe), built into the operating system image and located in the “\Windows” folder, checks for AutoExec (AutoExec.exe) in the “\Flash File Store\2577” folder.

Folder names used for the mounted volumes are retrieved from the registry to maintain coherence with the naming of the mounted volumes on the platform. These folder names are not hard-coded.

AutoExec is reserved for Intermec use to configure Intermec-specific applications. It launches the CAB installer, AutoCab (AutoCab.exe), to install platform cab files to the system, such as Intermec Data Collection.

When the AutoExec is complete, RunAutorun then checks for the existence of AutoRun (AutoRun.exe) and executes this program from the first media it is found on. This order is Secure Digital (“\SDMMC Disk\2577”), Object Store (“\2577”), Flash File Store (“\Flash File Store\2577”).

AutoRun is reserved for customer use to configure application launch sequences. It launches the AutoCab installer and any customer programs added to the AutoUser.dat file. Shown is the hierarchy of these files:
