Jan 11, 2002


Thank you for taking the time to download and evaluate Winalysis. Winalysis is a system utility designed to help manage change on Windows XP/2000/NT/ME/98 computers. The program can monitor the registry, files, users, groups, services, security policies, the event log and more. After initial configuration the program can tell you what's changed on a system with a single mouse click. Other features include file and registry restore, background monitoring of local and remote Windows computers, user account security vulnerability analysis, and SNMP trap generation.


INSTALLATION NOTES

To install Winalysis 2.90, run the installation program: wnaly290.exe

Winalysis installs into a user specified folder and will not update any files outside of this folder. The installation will add Winalysis to the "Start Programs" menu along with an "Uninstall Winalysis" option which you can use to remove the product from your system.
