Example of an URI to load ApplicGate via ClickOnce:
https://www.mycomp.com/publishAG/ApplicGate.application?server=rsp.mycomp.com:442&title=MyCompany_RSP ... with default setting sslcc=Prompt:*
These parameters are stored in an isolated storage to be used when ApplicGate is started via the Windows start menu or desktop shortcut.
They can be changed by a new load via URI or via menu "Stop & Restart", "Change ClickOnce parameters an restart".

Remark:
ClickOnce is supported by the web browsers IE and Edge.
When using Edge for an initial installation, ClickOnce must be enabled: Enter edge://flags/#edge-click-once into the address field of Edge.

Detailed description of ClickOnce:
- The necessary files (ApplicGate.exe, manifests etc.) have to be stored in a web storage you chose.
- Installation behaviour can be changed using mageui.exe (code signing certificate is necessary for update).
- Installation and first start is done by entering the URI (example above) into the web browser (e.g. Edge):
-- The local ApplicGate installation starts an autologon client connection:
-- The user must logon dependent on the authentication schema selected.
-- The connection to the server will be established (parameters server and port are used) and the routing entries will be downloaded (according to the privileges of the user).
-- The selected browser will be started and the UID List window will be shown (the title parameter can be used to define a title of the window).
-- Now the user can use the remote connections.
-- ApplicGate can be stopped by the stop command in the menu.
- Additional starts of the ApplicGate client:
-- Via the start menu or via the URI above.
-- ApplicGate will be updated if there is a newer version available.
