If, during a custom installation of the StarTeam Server for Microsoft Windows, you choose the Client Setup option, the installation files for StarTeam Cross-Platform Client were copied to a location designated by you and accessible to all users.

For example, if these users use Change Requests more often than any other Micro Focus tab, you can make the Change Requests tab the first, or only, tab that the client displays.
To customize default personal options, create a file named starteam-client-options.xml and place it in the Client Setup folder. During the StarTeam Cross-Platform Client installation, the default personal options file you created is copied to C:\Users\User_ID\AppData\Roaming\Borland\StarTeam where it becomes a template for the starteam-client-options.xml file created by the StarTeam Cross-Platform Client when a user starts it for the first time.
