The Belarc
Advisor software builds a detailed advisory profile of your installed
software and hardware, missing Microsoft hotfixes, anti-virus
status, CIS (Center for Internet Security)
benchmarks, and displays the results in your Web browser.
All of your PC profile information is kept private on your
PC and is not sent to any web server.
This makes it an ideal program when repairing a computer. If a full re-install is needed this software can provide you with the software keys that you have probably lost since they were installed. If you are working on a PC for someone else you can also show a before and after snapshot. Reports can also be saved to build up an invetory of your computers. |

FAQs:
Q: Will the Belarc Advisor send my PC profile
information up to a web server?
A: No. The Belarc Advisor creates a local Web page
and does not send up your PC profile to a Web server or anywhere
else.
Q: Must any previously installed Belarc Advisor
be removed before installing a newer version?
A: No. The installer will automatically remove any
previous Belarc Advisor version.
Q: The Advisor has installed and finished a
discovery of my PC's hardware and software, but I do not see any
results.
A: Check that Windows is set to open files with
the HTML extension in your web browser. To do this, in the Folder
Options windows control panel look at the File Types tab. Select
the HTML Document file type and check that it opens with your preferred
web browser.
If that doesn't work for you, open this file:
c:\program files\belarc\advisor\system\tmp\(COMPUTERNAME).html
(where COMPUTERNAME is the name of your PC) using the File|Open...
menu in your web browser.
Q: Can I purchase a license to run the Belarc
Advisor on my corporate network, or my customer's network?
A: We do not permit use of the Belarc Advisor for
commercial purposes, however we suggest that you take a look at these
products, which we do license for commercial use: |
