What is the best way to get to the configure screen when the mer file is set to auto run on the hmi. I need to get this file out before this screen finally quits on me.

On some PV+ HMIs, while it's booting up, there will be a small square lit up in one of the bottom corners of the screen while the rest is dark. Touch that, and it should get you to the configuration screen.

If the folks who built the HMI for you didn't add a button in the project to shut down the runtime, the only other way I can think of is to create a new project with just the shutdown button on it and download that mer file to the HMI. The original mer file will still be there on the HMI, accessible and copy-able from the configuration screens. Once you have it, delete the empty shutdown mer and go to the startup menu inside the configuration screens to set it to run your original runtime on boot-up.
