Micro Focus Support Scan Utility

We provide the Micro Focus Support Scan utility to gather information about your computer environment, the status of Micro Focus products installed, and other statistics relevant to troubleshooting problems on your machine, including:

• The amount of memory in your computer
• Computer storage capacity
• Details of your operating system
• Set environment variables
• Running processes
• Status of services
• Details of any networking software you are using
• The names, release numbers, install dates, and install locations of all Micro Focus products
• The names, release numbers, install dates, and install locations of all non-Micro Focus products
• Micro Focus entries in the registry
• Micro Focus licensing information

While you certainly can and should use the information provided to aid you in diagnosing and correcting problems yourself, it is particularly helpful as an aid to Micro Focus SupportLine as we work to help you to resolve cases you log with us.
