The Smartlaunch Client has a small “backdoor” access option where you get access to make some basic computer operations and settings.

Press Esc or click in the upper-left corner of the screen, you should now see the following screen:

General Client Options
The main screen in the Smartlaunch Client Options window has some very general options.
- Server IP/Name

From this screen you can also make simple actions such as shutting down the computer. De-activating will prevent the Smartlaunch Client from starting automatically when Windows boots.
