The Setup has created new shortcuts in the Start menu for the Synchronizer and the License manager. An extra shortcut is created for the Domino Synchronizer Connection, which will start the connection setup screen.

If you are using other Synchronizer shortcuts, on your Desktop for instance, and you want to use the new connection option for those shortcuts also you have to add an extra parameter /DC

  • Right-click the shortcut > Properties > Target 
  • Add /DC at the end of the line preceded by a space

Example: "C:\Program Files\InfoBridge\Lotus Notes Domino Synchronizer" /DC
