## Starting Understand for C++

When you install Understand for C++ on Windows, commands to launch the software are added to your Start menu. By default, these are in the Understand folder.

For information on controlling Understand for C++ from other applications such as editors, compiler environments, and debuggers see Server Mode: Controlling from Other Programs. For information on running Understand for C++ from the command line, see Command Line Processing.

If multiple users will run Understand for C++ from the same Windows machine, each user may have a separate initialization file. These files store user preferences. Understand for C++ looks for the initialization file location in the following sequence:

1. %APPDATA% (local settings and applications)
2. %WINDIR% (typically c:\Windows)
3. %STI_INIDIR%
