Start Menu that can be used to launch a specific emulated terminal type. There is
also a shortcut named Applications which is simply a shortcut to the Mapped
Share folder. The shortcuts are installed for all users.

By default anytime you create/save an application on emulator, it goes to the
mapped share folder.

be Flash Saved for it to be permanently stored in emulator. Otherwise, it’s lost

need to uninstall and install the emulator and the data will be lost.
