I created a Perspective workstation shortcut file and placed it in the `shell:common startup` folder. After restarting my PC, the runtime file opens, but I can't control or operate the SCADA; basically, the SCADA runtime isn't working. However, when I manually open the Perspective application, it works fine.  
kindly share you experience or thought.
