There were documented issues with 19.3 so I used 19.2.2 which still serialized but failed to burn in the rest of the parameters.

You can download a copy of the unlocked file here. Reference the scripting in the file to modify as you see fit and use for your purposes. This technique makes it easy for FileMaker developers to set this preference without having to involve IT personnel. You can use this demo file to copy the scripting into your own file, depending on what suits your application and deployment. This should be set according to the deployment requirements. The change will take effect after you restart FileMaker Pro.įor Windows installations, the scripting sets the value for the current user, but you could also set the preference at the local machine level so all users would get this preference set. FileMaker can detect the platform you are running on, either Windows or Mac, and run the appropriate PowerShell or AppleScript command, respectively. With that as inspiration, I put together a FileMaker file that can set this preference. Being able to use the command line makes it possible to use remote management tools to set this preference en masse. The file to be opened can be either a local file or a file hosted on FileMaker Server or FileMaker Cloud.Ī blog post from our friends at Beezwax shows how you can set this preference from the command line. Doing so will avoid users seeing the default FileMaker Launch Center that can be confusing to some users. This setting can be quite useful in certain deployment scenarios, such as office-wide deployments, where your solution should open by default. In FileMaker 19, you can manually set this in the Preferences. With FileMaker 18, the only way to set this preference was to specify it in a text document – Assisted Install.txt – when you first installed that application. There is a setting in FileMaker 18 that allows you to set a preference for automatically opening a file whenever FileMaker is launched.
