Microsoft Word has several useful command line startup switches that can help automate tasks and customize how Word starts up. These switches allow you to make Word run in specific ways to perform certain actions without manual intervention.In this article, we will cover the following topics:Command line startup switches are modifiers added to the Word executable file (winword.exe) when launching the program. By adding various switches, you can control the startup behavior and automate Word to do things like:Start up Word in safe modeLaunch Word without showing the splash screenOpen Word with a custom templateRun a specific Word macro on startupThese switches are extremely useful for automating repetitive Word tasks and customizing startup settings.How to Use Command Line SwitchesThere are a few ways to use Word’s command line startup switches:1. The Run CommandYou can add switches directly in the Windows Run command box (Windows key + R). For example:winword.exe /safeThis would start Word in safe mode.2. ShortcutsCreate a shortcut to Word and add switches in the shortcut’s properties target field.3. Batch FilesAdd switches as part of a batch script to automate launching Word and performing actions.List of Startup SwitchesHere is a list of the most useful Microsoft Word command line startup switches:| Switch | Description | Example ||-|-|-||/safe|Starts Word in safe mode|winword.exe /safe||/q|Starts Word without splash screen|winword.exe /q||/t|Opens a custom template|winword.exe /tC:\template.dotx||/m|Runs a macro|winword.exe /mautonew||/n|Starts Word without opening a document|winword.exe /n||/w|Opens a new Word instance|winword.exe /w||/r|Reregisters Word|winword.exe /r||/x|Responds to only one print request|winword.exe /x||/z|Like /t switch but generates startup + new event|winword.exe /ztemplate.dotx|There are additional startup switches not listed here. Refer to Microsoft’s documentation for a complete list.Automation ExamplesHere are some examples of how to use these switches to automate Word tasks:Startup MacroTo automatically run a macro called “AutoNew” every time Word starts:winword.exe /mautonewCustom TemplateTo always start Word using a custom template called “mytemplate.dotx”:winword.exe /tC:\templates\mytemplate.dotxBatch PrintingThis command line prints the document “report.docx” without opening Word’s interface:winword.exe /x C:\documents\report.docxWrap UpLearning to use Microsoft Word’s startup switches can help you be more productive by automating repetitive tasks. Whether it’s always opening a certain template, running cleanup macros, or batch printing documents, these switches are powerful tools for customizing and scripting Word behavior.Give some of these switches a try and see where you can incorporate them into your workflows. Just be careful when running Word in safe mode, as it disables all add-ins and customizations.Let us know in the comments if you have

Args: ['start-fullscreen'], detach: true}b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, options: browser_optsNote that you can combine W3C and Browser specific keys in the same Hash:browser_opts = {accept_insecure_certs: true, page_load_timeout: 100, script_timeout: 30}, page_load_strategy: :eager, exclude_switches: ['disable-popup-blocking'], args: ['start-fullscreen'], detach: true}b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, options: browser_optsService Provider CapabilitiesService providers have their own capabilities, and they have to use name spaced keywords.Sauce Labs uses sauce:options, BrowserStack uses bstack:options, and Selenoid uses selenoid:options.To add custom service provider capabilities, add a hash of the capabilities inside the provider’scustom keyword, inside the :options Hash. Note that since the keyword has a colon, it needs tohave quotes around it. Also note that using a service provider requires specifying their url (more onthat in the next section).browser_opts = {accept_insecure_certs: true, page_load_timeout: 100, script_timeout: 30}, page_load_strategy: :eager, exclude_switches: ['disable-popup-blocking'], args: ['start-fullscreen'], detach: true, 'sauce:options': {username: ENV['SAUCE_USERNAME'], access_key: ENV['SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY'], name: test_name, build: build_name, idle_timeout: 60}}b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, options: browser_opts, url: ' Code is SentUse the :url or :service parameterYou can execute tests on your local machine, via a Selenium server (eitherlocally or on another machine), or via a service provider(like Sauce Labs or Browser Stack).To route commands via a server or service provider, simply pass in the location of theserver’s endpoint with the :url parameter:b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, url: ' :url is not specified, Watir assumes you want to execute your tests locally.It will use Selenium code to determine theinstalled driver associated with the chosen Browser, start it up,and set it to be the recipient of the commands.To customize how the driver is started, use the :service parameter with these keywords: :path - the path of the driver; :port - the port the driver should start on :args - the list of command line switches to start the driver with.You can get a list of valid arguments for each driver via the command line with the –help argument:chromedriver --helpgeckodriver --helpmsedgedriver --helpsafaridriver --helpAn example of setting service arguments with the :service parameter is:service_opts = {path: '/path/to/drivers/chromedriver', port: '12345', args: ['--verbose', '--log-path=/path/to/logs/chromedriver.log']}b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, service: service_optsHow the Code is SentUse the :http_client parameterThe WebDriver protocol is based on using an HTTP client to send JSON packets to various endpoints.As of Watir 6.19, we are using our own custom client: Watir:HttpClient.All it is doing differently is adding some header information toindicate to browser services that Watir is being used and including the version.If you are using your own HttpClient, considersubclassing the Watir one,

In context menuto create an archive with these files in the destination folder.3. It is possible to use WinRAR.ini file instead of Registry to storeWinRAR settings. You may prefer such approach if you plan to installWinRAR to removable media, such as USB flash drive, and then run iton different computers.See "WinRAR.ini file" topic in "Configuration settings" chapterof WinRAR help for details.4. Added extraction support for ZIP and ZIPX archives using XZ compression algorithm.5. If ZIP or ZIPX archive contains any compression algorithms exceptusual "Store" or "Deflate", algorithm names are displayedin "Version to extract" field of archive information dialog.Algorithms with names unknown to WinRAR will be assigned "m"name, where "num" is a compression algorithm numeric identifier.6. "Open with WinRAR" command is available in Windows context menusfor archive formats supported by WinRAR. It can be turned offwith "Open with WinRAR (for usual archives)" option in WinRAR"Settings/Integration/Context menu items..." dialog.7. Command line RAR can read the default set of switches from rar.inifile stored in RAR program folder. Previously it was possible todefine only the same set of switches for all RAR command with"switches=" string. Now rar.ini also allows to specifyseparate switch sets for individual RAR commands usingthe following syntax:switches_=For example:switches_a=-m5 -sswitches_x=-o+8. Command "ch" supports switches -tl, -cu, -cl also for ZIP archives.Previously "ch" allowed these switches only for RAR archive format.9. For archive formats lacking file time information, such as .bz2,.xz and .Z, WinRAR sets container archive modification timeto extracted files. It does not apply to tar.bz2, tar.xz and tar.Z,which use file time stored in tar headers.10. "Keep broken files" extraction option is supported for bzip2 archives.11. WinRAR icon in Windows context menus is scaled up correctlyin high DPI screen modes such as 150% or 200% of normal text size.12. It is possible to disable WinRAR "Benchmark" command with"Benchmark" variable of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR\PolicyRegistry key. In multi-user environment "Benchmark" command mightabuse shared computational resources. See "Registry variables" topicin "Configuration settings" chapter of WinRAR help for more details.13. Additionally to "sfxcmd" variable containing the entire command line,SFX module sets "sfxpar" variable containing command line parametersonly, without leading SFX module name. These variables are set beforestarting a program specified in "Setup" command.14. File overwrite prompt in console RAR displays the size and modificationtime for existing and new files.15. When archiving from stdin with -si switch, RAR sets the current systemtime to modification time of archived file. Previous version did notset this time at all.16. It is possible
