si loadrc
loads the Windchill RV&S Client preferences file
Synopsis
si loadrc [--[no]merge] [--rc=value] [(-?|--usage)] [(-N|--no)] [(-Y|--yes)] [--[no]batch] [--cwd=directory] [--forceConfirm=[yes|no]] [-F|--selectionFile=value]
Description
si loadrc loads the user's IntegrityClient.rc file, which contains your personal preferences for configuring the Windchill RV&S Client. The IntegrityClient.rc file is loaded when you start the client; however, this command reloads the file without restarting the client. If for some reason your personal IntegrityClient.rc file has changed, this command will reload your preferences. Your preferences file shouldn't change, unless you happen to copy someone else's file or if you happen to restore a backup that you made.
Your administrator can lock certain preferences from the Windchill RV&S Server, preventing you from configuring them using the si setprefs command. Preferences that are locked -- viewable with si viewprefs display (locked) at the end of the output line. The following preferences can be locked from the server by editing Windchill RV&S policies in the Windchill RV&S administration client.

* 
Do not edit the IntegrityClient.rc file manually, because preferences that appear more than once in the IntegrityClient.rc file can cause the Windchill RV&S Client to behave unpredictably.
