IMPORTANT NOTES


  • If your application takes a few seconds to load, be patient and do not
    click the application shortcut a second time as this will display an error
    which can cancel the application launch.
  • The length of time it takes for an application to load will depend on
    your internet connection. We strongly suggest disabling your WiFi and
    using a network cable instead.
  • You can only run one instance of application at a time.
  • You can run different applications simultaneously.

Warnings

  • You will lose your data without notice between sessions. Always save
    your data to your local computer or USB drive!
  • Once you are ready to leave your session, log off instead of
    disconnecting.
  • Disconnect only if you plan to return to your session within 10
    minutes.
