The System Configuration utility automates the routine troubleshooting steps that Microsoft Customer Support Services professionals use when they diagnose system configuration issues.
When you use this utility, you can select options to temporarily prevent services and programs from loading during the Windows startup process. With this process, you can reduce the risk of making typing errors when you use Registry Editor. Additionally, when you use the utility, it is easy to restore the original configuration.
When you use the System Configuration utility, you can start Windows while common services and startup programs are disabled. Then, you can enable them one at a time. If an issue does not occur when a service is disabled but does occur when the service is enabled, the service could be the cause of the issue.
The diagnostic startup option enables Windows to determine which basic device drivers and software to load when you start Windows. When you use this option, the system temporarily disables Microsoft services such as the following services:
If you can reproduce the issue after the computer restarts, the issue is not related to system services or startup items. In this case, the System Configuration utility will not help troubleshoot the issue.
If you cannot reproduce the issue after the computer restarts, the issue is related to either the system services or the startup items. To determine the items to which the issue is related, follow these steps:
After you determine the items to which the issue is related, follow the steps in the "How to determine the service or startup item that is causing the issue" section to determine the individual service or startup item that is causing the issue.
You can use the Tools tab in the System Configuration utility to start diagnostic tools and other advanced tools. The Tools tab also displays the path and the switches for the tools.
To start one or more of the tools that are listed on the Tools tab, click the tool that you want to start, and then click Launch. Or, click the tool that you want to start, and then press ALT+L.

The Device Configuration Utility (DevConfig) allows you to send new operating systems to data loggers and other devices with flash memory, configure various PakBus settings in data loggers, and edit settings for communication peripherals such as the NL240 and RF401A. It is used to set up data loggers and peripherals before those devices are deployed in the field and before the devices are added to networks in Campbell Scientific data logger support software such as LoggerNet or PC400.
DevConfig provides a reporting facility where a summary of the current configuration of a device can be shown on the screen and printed. This configuration can also be saved to a file and used to restore the settings in the same or a replacement device.
A software utility used to download operating systems and set up Campbell Scientific hardware. Also will update PakBus Graph and the Network Planner if they have been installed previously by another Campbell Scientific software package.
Free options include PC400, the Device Configuration Utility and LoggerLink. If your data logger supports Ethernet over USB, you can connect over a browser without the need for Campbell Scientific software. For more information, read the "New Ethernet over USB Functionality for Data Loggers" blog article.
Select Citrix Workspace app for Chrome and choose one of the four configuration options. Then, click Continue to move ahead or Click Cancel to go back to the home page.
Open the default.ica file typically at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Citrix\\conf\default.ica for Web interface customers, where the sitename is the name specified for the site when it was created. For StoreFront customers, the default.ica file is typically at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Citrix\\App_Data\default.ica, where a store name is the name specified for the store when it was created.
You can edit only the settings and the values that are present in the upload file (policy.txt). If you require to edit other policies, create a policy file to include the settings. For more information, see How to create a configuration.
I have been baffled trying to figure out why Device IP Configuration Utility stopped finding devices on the network. I figured it was a routing change on the network. Today, the Device IP Configuration Utility did find a device, so I compared the NMC configuration to a device which wasn't found. I found the NMC which was found had a SNMPv1 community of public, and the device which wasn't found did not have public community.
Reading the help, readme file I didn't see where it needs a public community to work. Perhaps this could be added to the readme file. Another option is to allow the user to specify the community which Device IP Configuration Utility uses to search for NMC's.
I will log a product change request about this. You're right that the utility does rely on SNMPv1 and I think the assumption is that the user is finding NMCs on the network for first setup using this tool - which we ship the NMC with SNMPv1 enabled with the default community string of public. Then, of course the user would find the NMC, assign IP settings, and configure it from there, likely never using the utility again after that.
Can I ask more about how you're using this? Are you finding NMCs on the network after first setup for a different reason? Just asking so I can help better explain your perspective and use case in my request so that we are all on the same page.
Sometimes I configure a UPS/NMC while it's on my desk, then someone takes the UPS/NMC to a different site (with a different subnet) and they don't assign a DHCP reservation or let me know what IP the NMC picked up. When the aforementioned happens, I run the Device IP Configuration Utility to find the NMC IP. I try to prevent this by requesting a DHCP reservation for the remote site ahead of time, however I have been know to make a mistake and forget to request a reservation ahead of time. Sometimes I remember to check my e-mail to see if I received a startup e-mail from the NMC.
I also have been know to run Device IP Configuration Utility when I want to ensure all NMC's are on the network--I compare the found list to my list of UPS's. Ideally I would check my e-mail to see if I had received a self test notification from each NMC, however that's a bit of work.
OK, understood. While I personally understand why you're using this utility and that it can provide a little shortcut for certain tasks, like checking firmware revs, I have a feeling some may argue that it is not the main intent of the utility - especially specific to the firmware rev checking.
The other use case I think is valid and makes sense (again - personal opinion) and I think it will become more important as laws like those being passed in California with non default credentials at least make a case for evaluating the ability to specify a non-default community name for scanning.
After finishing ME1 I figured I could just jump into playing ME2 and import my character, so used to 360 saves. However logging to the Me2 it stated something about using a Configuration Utility. Yet looking into the Bioware folder...I can't find anything...I've copied and pasted the saves from Me1's Save file into the Me2's save file. And when I used the software program I used to download it (Origin) it doesn't do anything it comes up "Synching Cloud Data" but then nothing....what did I do wrong? Where can I find this Configuration Utlity?
When you start ME2, you should see a splash screen that included a button called 'configure'. If, for some reason, you don't have that, you have to locate the config utility in your installation folder, not the BioWare folder in Documents (commonly made mistake). For instance: Program Files (x86) -> Mass Effect 2 -> Binaries -> MassEffect2Config.exe.

I am running Windows 8.1 Pro (64 bit) with a HEDT Workstation/Gaming rig built on the Intel X99 chipset. It's pretty bare bones, (though VR Ready), with huge upgrade potential. I'm not sure if it is the OS but, I found the "MassEffect2Config.exe" configuration utility in the file directory: "C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\Mass Effect 2\Binaries\MassEffect2Config.exe" and, it would not execute. Maybe it is the Kapersky anti-virus but, it typically informs me that it is blocking an executable when I launch it, (if it wants to try to block a program I launch.) More likely, the executable only runs within the Mass Effect program. The work around I used was to copy the player profile in "C:\Users\PC_User\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect\Save\Char_01-40-1-2-3-4-8-2018-30-25.MassEffectSave and pasted it to "C:\Users\PC_User\Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect 2\Save\ME1(Where I created the new folder "ME1" to paste the Character save file into.) I then relaunched Mass Effect 2 and used the import option successfully.
