SupportURL (Standard 8 Module Reference)

7/8/2014

Review the applicable Embedded Core modules and any examples for the SupportURL setting in Windows Embedded 8 Standard (Standard 8).

This setting contains a string with a maximum length of 2083 characters that is the complete URL, including the http:// prefix, for the support page for the OEM.

If you set HelpCustomized to false, the System item of Control Panel shows the support information specified by this setting, SupportHours, and SupportPhone.

This URL is displayed for single-language, single-region devices. For devices delivered in multiple languages or regions, OEMs must customize the Escalation page in Help and Support Center. Then, the System item in Control Panel displays a Support Information link to the Escalation page.
