You can make changes to session profiles that are not available through the GUI. You can make these changes by adding/changing an entry in the [PROFILE] section of a session profile with an .hep extension. Session profiles are located in the Profile directory where the user files are stored on your machine. To access the User Files folder, double-click the User Files shortcut in the Hummingbird Connectivity program group.

Auto End Quick-Key/Quick Script/Macro—Enables HostExplorer to save the macro, Quick-Key, or Quick Script and launch it automatically each time you close a session.
