Siebel Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows: Servers, Mobile Web Clients, Tools > Installing the Siebel Mobile and Dedicated Web Clients > Using Siebel QuickStart with the Siebel Mobile Web ClientSiebel QuickStart is an agent that is preloaded on a mobile user's machine at start-up and reduces the time required to launch the Siebel Mobile Web Client. Siebel QuickStart is enabled and loaded for the first time from the Siebel application login screen. NOTE: Siebel QuickStart can be used with the Siebel Mobile Web Client, when connecting to the local database or Sample Database. It does not apply to the Siebel Dedicated Web Client or Siebel Web Client. Siebel QuickStart applies to subsequent instances of the same type of Siebel application session—running the same application as the same user and with the same start-up options. The speed increase provided by QuickStart does not take effect on the initial Siebel login. Subsequent logins of the same type of Siebel application session benefit from QuickStart, until the user disables QuickStart. Siebel QuickStart stores the encrypted Siebel user name and password in a cookie. For more information about using cookies with Siebel applications, see Security Guide for Siebel eBusiness Applications. NOTE: Users should disable Siebel QuickStart for existing application sessions before enabling it for another application session. Enabling and Disabling Siebel QuickStartInstructions are provided in the following procedures for enabling and disabling Siebel QuickStart. NOTE: This section assumes that the Siebel QuickStart shortcut is located in the start-up group. The Siebel QuickStart shortcut is not created by default. For information about how to create it, see Siebel Mobile and Dedicated Web Client Shortcuts.

Options for the Siebel Icon in the System TrayWhen the Siebel application is running or the QuickStart agent is loaded, an icon appears in the system tray. Right-clicking this icon displays several choices:
Using View Precaching with Siebel QuickStartWhen the QuickStart agent is loaded, views specified using the parameters in the [Preload] section of the configuration file, such as siebel.cfg, are preloaded (precached) during start-up of the Siebel application. In subsequent application sessions, navigating to a precached view is faster. In the [Preload] section, specify the names of the views to be precached as the values for configuration parameters named For more information about specifying configuration file parameters, see Siebel System Administration Guide. Specifying QuickStart Availability with Siebel PackagerBy default, the siebel.exe program has Siebel QuickStart available. However, administrators may choose to package client installations with QuickStart unavailable—so the Enable Siebel QuickStart check box does not appear on the Siebel login screen and thus cannot be enabled by end users. When preparing model Siebel client installations to include in packages you create using the Siebel Packager utility, you can disable Siebel QuickStart. To do this, rename or remove the siebel.exe program and then change the name of siebel1.exe to siebel.exe. For more information on using the Packager utility, see Going Live with Siebel eBusiness Applications.
