List of Settings in UXL Launcher

This is a list of settings used in the UXL Launcher config file. Any settings that don't say how to change them must be changed in the config file (UXL-Launcher.exe.config)

Setting name	Default value	Description
alwaysOnTop	False	If this is set to True, all application windows will be on top of other windows not set on top. Can be set by clicking View>Always On Top. Version 3.0 has some issues with this.
officeDriveLocation	C	Used as part of the file path that's used to launch apps. This particular part is the drive letter at the beginning of the path. Can be modified from Tools>Options...>General tab>Drive textbox.
cpuIsSixtyFourBit	True	Used as part of the file path that's used to launch apps. This particular part decides whether to use the 64-bit or 32-bit Program Files folder. Can be changed from Tools>Options...>Advanced tab>32-bit Windows radio button or 64-bit Windows radio button.
userHasOfficeThreeSixFive	False	Used as part of the file path that's used to launch apps. This particular part decides whether to launch from the Microsoft Office\root\Office(version) folder or to just use the Microsoft Office\Office(version). Set this to True if you're not sure what MSI is (Office 2016 doesn't use MSI for the most part). Can be changed by (un)checking Tools>Options...>General tab>I installed via Office 365 checkbox (for Office 2010 and 2016 in version dropdown). This checkbox will be combined with the I installed via MSI checkbox in version 3.2.
userOfficeVersion	14	Used as part of the file path that's used to launch apps. This particular part decides which Office version folder to launch from. Office 2010 is 14, Office 2013 is 15, and Office 2016 is 16. Can be changed by changing the Office version from Tools>Options...>General tab>Office version dropdown box.
installedViaMSIPackage	False	Used as part of the file path that's used to launch apps. This particular part decides whether to launch from the Microsoft Office\root\Office(version) folder or to just use the Microsoft Office\Office(version). Leave this False if you're not sure what MSI is (Office 2016 doesn't use MSI for the most part). Can be changed by (un)checking Tools>Options...>General tab>I installed via MSI checkbox (for Office 2013 in version dropdown). This checkbox and setting will be removed from the app and combined with the I installed via Office 365 checkbox in version 3.2.
debugmodeShowLabels	False	If this is enabled (True), debug labels and other controls will appear on the main window after restarting UXL Launcher. These labels update whenever settings get changed. If the theme engine is enabled, debug labels will show up for the theme engine as well, including buttons that apply the chosen theme (so that you can preview your custom theme, if you want to) or the default theme.
userChosenTheme	Default	This is the theme that the theme engine uses if it's enabled. This setting first appeared in version 3.1 and can be changed from Tools>Options...>Personalization tab>Theme list dropdown box.
enableThemeEngine	False	Enables or disables the theme engine. When enabled, it allows you to change the colors of the UXL Launcher main window and Quickmenu (the system tray icon context menu) via predefined or custom themes. This setting first appeared in version 3.1 and can be changed from Tools>Options...>Personalization tab>Enable UXL Launcher Theme Engine (requires application restart) checkbox.
debugmodeShowThemeEngineOutput	False	If this is enabled (True) and the theme engine is enabled, theme engine output such as error messages and other status will be displayed in the Visual Studio Immediate Window and any other configured debug listeners which can make custom theme designing easier. This setting first appeared in version 3.1.
hideWhenMinimized	False	When enabled, the main window will be hidden from the taskbar when it's minimized. To bring it back, either double-click the Quickmenu icon in the system tray or right-click the Quickmenu icon and click Show UXL Launcher. When the main window is hidden, you can still use the Quickmenu to launch apps, open the Options window, and exit UXL Launcher. This setting first appeared in version 3.1 and can be changed from View>Hide When Minimized.
userCustomThemePath	(empty)	This is the path to the custom theme the user wants to use, if they want to use a custom theme. This setting first appeared in version 3.1 and can be changed from Tools>Options...>Personalization tab>Custom theme path textbox.
allowCustomThemes	True	If disabled (False), custom themes won't be loaded. This may be helpful for companies and organizations who want to keep their computers locked down. From the changelog: "The user will be told that support for custom themes has been disabled and to contact their administrator if they try to choose a custom theme in the Options window. It may be a good idea to install UXL Launcher and its config file in a location away from regular users with write access, such as in a read-only folder in a network drive and have the config file hidden to prevent modification." This setting first appeared in version 3.1.
