In addition to the Switcher icon, the Location Switcher program may also cre-
ate a prompt at boot-up that allows you to select which profile you want to use.

Windows 2000 Professional users to select a profile after the user has logged
onto the network. the Switcher prompts Windows 2000 Professional users to
select a profile after the user has logged onto the network.
During installation, the Composer wizard will ask you to decide if you want to
use this prompt. If you chose to install this feature, then the prompt will
appear during boot-up each time you restart the computer.

The Switcher prompt at boot-up feature is not available on comput-
