Outlook Configuration Analyzer Tool 2.0 Now Available

The Outlook Configuration Analyzer Tool 2.0 (OCAT 2.0) is now available for download via the Microsoft Download Center. OCAT 2.0 provides a quick and easy method to analyze your Microsoft Office Outlook profile and mailbox for common configurations that may cause problems in Outlook. This can be very useful for busy Help Desk personnel when end-users call for help with Outlook or when you want to identify possible issues with Outlook proactively.

OCAT 2.0 provides a detailed report of your current Outlook profile and mailbox. This report includes many parameters about your profile, and it highlights any known problems that are found in your profile or mailbox. For any problems that are listed in the report, you are provided a link to a Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) article that describes a possible fix for the problem. If you are a Help Desk professional, you can also export the report to a file. Then, the report can be viewed in the OCAT on another client computer where the tool is installed. The OCAT 2.0 also includes a command-line version that can be used to collect an OCAT scan without user intervention.
