application screen in FactoryTalk View Studio. The application stops
running but is still loaded.

On PanelView Plus CE devices, you can enter Configuration mode
from the Start menu or the desktop.

Select Start>Programs>Rockwell Software>FactoryTalk
View>FactoryTalkView ME Station.

Select the FactoryTalk View ME Station icon on the desktop.

screen.
