Stopping Services Affecting Harmony on Windows
How to stop all services affecting Toon Boom Harmony
- Make sure that no one is running Toon Boom Harmony. All instances of Harmony must be closed on the server and on all the clients.
- Make sure that all batch rendering or vectorizing is completed or that the queues are empty. In the Control Center module, use the Queue menu to open the Vectorize and Render Queue for all environments. The queues should be empty or the status of all jobs should be "Completed".
Upgrading from versions 7.8 and later:
From the Start menu, do one of the following:
- Windows 10: Start > All apps > Harmony [version] [edition] > Control Panel.
- Windows 8: Start > Apps > Harmony [version] [edition] > Control Panel.
