Starting SnapShot

Caution:

Be sure to follow the guidelines in the preceding sections of this guide entitled:

Microsoft Windows Security
As noted in this section, you do not have to right click on the SnapShot.exe icon and select Run as administrator. This is because SnapShot.exe is designed to automatically attempt to start with the elevated permissions. If you are not signed into Windows with an administrative account, you will be prompted to enter the credentials for an administrative account.
Minimizing Locked Files

The SnapShot utility is delivered with the installation of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Development Client. It is located in this directory:

<dev_client_installation_directory>\System\bin64 or bin32

To run the most current version of SnapShot for multiple releases, you must copy the SnapShot.exe program to a directory outside the Development Client installation directory. For example, the installation directory might be c:\E920. If you attempt to run SnapShot from within the Development Client installation directory (for example, c:\E920), SnapShot will fail to rename the installation directory.

Tip:

You can create a shortcut to SnapShot.exe, but you still must copy SnapShot.exe to a location outside the original installation directory where it was delivered.
