One other Great tool to fix client actions without Console (Right click tools)

I Just checked the tool and found it would useful for one works on SCCM Client health image It has key features as below  

  • Initiate most common SCCM client schedule actions.
  • Initiate SCCM client health checks and fixes. Allows running checks with and without fixes as well as full health check.
  • Initiate basic administrative actions on workstations.
  • Switch between integrated authentication and alternate credentials. When logged on username has not enough rights it’s possible to specify alternate credentials by clicking on a link in top-right corner. Windows XP requires that cmdkey.exe is available in HTA folder.
  • Use TXT, CSV, XLS or XLSX files as the data source. Files with TXT extension must have computer names on each line. Excel worksheets are read from column A starting from second row. Using exported CSV from SCCM console is also supported – script knows that computer names are in first column.
  • Populate computer list from SCCM collection. Allows loading all collection members into a list.
  • Manually enter computer names into a textbox. Allows manually entering one or more computers in a text box for quick actions.
  • Supports both 32-bit and 64-bit OS on clients.
  • Supports Windows XP SP2 and newer operating systems on clients.
  • Displays real-time progress. Works when running HTA on Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008. Useful when there are thousands of computers and it would be nice to know how much is done. HTA window may not update as smoothly in Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, but it works.
  • Log is created in a text area and in a file. Lastlog.log is written to HTA folder. By default the log is using Trace32 log formatting.
  • Uses configuration file to store default settings.
