General Application Manager Administration

General Application Manager administration tasks include:

Removing an application
Rereading the database of applications during a session

To Remove an Application

If an application has been registered using the dtappintegrate tool, you can also use dtappintegrate to reverse the process. When an application is unregistered, its application group is removed from Application Manager, and its actions, data types, icons, and help are no longer available.

Run the command:
```
	dtappintegrate -s app_root -u
```

To Update Application Manager During a Session

You must rebuild Application Manager if you add applications and want those changes to take effect immediately.

Open the Desktop_Tools application group and double-click Reload Applications.

Reload Applications is useful for updating Application Manager when applications are added to an application server. However, Reload Applications does not detect applications that have been removed from an application server, or applications that have been moved from one location to another. These changes take effect when the user logs out and back in.
