Configuring the GS Worker Daemon to Startup Automatically with Autodesk Inventor
Follow these steps to configure the WorkerDaemon to execute at startup.
1. Create a shortcut for the WorkerDaemon.exe file, found in the obj folder at the Theorem install location (such as D:\PTC\Theorem_14.0.5\i486_nt\obj).
2. Right-click on the shortcut and select Properties. Modify the target by adding the port number on which the WorkerDaemon is expected to start (such as D:\PTC\Theorem_14.0.5\i486_nt\obj\WorkerDaemon.exe620), where 620 is the port number.
3. In Windows, navigate to > > . Right-click on the Startup folder and select Explore all users.
4. The Startupfolder location opens (such as D:\User Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup). Copy the shortcut you created in step 1 and paste it into the Startup folder.
5. Verify that the WorkerDaemon will launch automatically on startup by checking the system configuration. In Windows, perform > and enter msconfig on the command line. Select the Startup tab and look for the WorkerDaemon entry.
