• If you are using "System Platform," you would use the IDE to deploy to the InTouch runtime.

3. Scripting Housekeeping

Open your 10.5 app in WindowMaker. Go to Special > Scripts.

• Application On-Shutdown: Are you writing to the registry? Modern Windows blocks this.
• Data Change Scripts: Replace heavy looping scripts with condition scripts.
