Review scenarios for using Open Web Launch with your application.

JNLP files

If you enabled Make default on JNLP files in the setup, double-clicking a JNLP file in File Explorer will open the file, download the required resources, and start the application as instructed in the JNLP file.

If you do not want this option, you can create a shortcut on the workstation using the following syntax:
<path-to-open-weblaunch>\openweblaunch [options] <jnlp-file>

JNLP URL

Open Web Launch can run Java Web Start applications from a URL pointing to a JNLP file.

Create a shortcut on the workstation using the following syntax:
<path-to-open-weblaunch>\openweblaunch [options] <jnlp-url>
