Starting the TIBCO MFT Command Center Service on Windows Automatically

You can set up an automatic start for the TIBCO MFT Command Center embedded application server on Windows systems.

    2. Click Environment Variables.
    3. In the Environment Variables window, search for the JAVA_HOME variable in the System variables panel.
    4. Set the JAVA_HOME variable to make it points to your Java JDK file. For example, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_66.
