TwinCAT.ProductivityTools uses the selected target of a TwinCAT XAE project Without an open TwinCAT XAE project the buttons are hidden. When starting a VS Solution with a TwinCAT XAE project they are automatically displayed. The use of the local target system is deactivated, e.g. to avoid a shutdown of the own operating system.
