If you are using the launcher before 2018.02 you should replace the Launcher.exe and the Launcher.ini (click on the links to download the new versions). Please overwrite the old ones with these new files.

Launcher.xml (example)

In the Launcher.xml 4 different actions can be configured:

```
ViewReports
```
```
LaunchFewsClient
```
```
LaunchConfigManager
```
```
LaunchAdminInterface
```

The IDs of the 4 actions must match exactly. All paths configured can be relative paths.

Within the action tags you can choose from 3 options for the configuration. Use webPage for ViewReports and LaunchAdminInterface. Use executable for LaunchFewsClient and LaunchConfigManager. The third choice, javaApp is no longer supported since 2018.02.

The launcher.xml example below is consistent with the directory structure explain explained in the beginning of this section.
