I would like to setup the Remote Launcher for PolySpace, but I don't want store my user credentials in the service. Is there another way to launch the Remote Launcher without saving my credentials?

It is possible to access the PolySpace Server through the Remote Launcher without requiring a username and password. To do this, you can launch the remote launcher as an application rather than a service. To setup this configuration, follow the steps below:
1) First disable the PolySpace service. To do so, go to the Windows Start menu to Run and type in "services.msc".
2) Locate "PolySpace Server" in the list. Right click on PolySpace Server and select Properties.
3) If the service is running, click Stop to stop the service. Once it has been stopped, change the startup type option to "Disabled".
4) Once the service is disabled, make sure that the polyspace.conf file is setup correctly. To do so, open the file: C:\PolySpace\RemoteLauncher\polyspace.conf. This file should have the following information:
For PolySpace for ADA:
# Local configuration.
product=C:\PolySpace\PolySpaceForADA_R2008a
lang=ADA
lang=ADA95
#
# Remote Launcher configuration.
datadir=C:\PolySpace\PolySpace_RLDatas
username=<your username>
cpu=<your machine name>
For PolySpace for C/C++:
# Local configuration.
#
product=C:\PolySpace\PolySpaceForCandCPP_R2008a
lang=C
lang=CPP
# Remote Launcher configuration.
#
datadir=C:\PolySpace\PolySpace_RLDatas
username=<your username>
cpu=<your machine name>
This information should already be stored in the file, but if not, update it appropriately.
5) To start the Remote Launcher as an application, simply launch the following executable:
C:\PolySpace\PolySpace_Common\RemoteLauncher\wbin\polyspaced.exe
This will launch the Remote Launhcer as an application. If you would like this to start automatically at boot time, you can create a shortcut to that file and place it in your Windows startup folder: C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Start Menu\Programs\Startup. Once the shortcut is there, the Remote Launcher will start when you log in.
