Overview

The Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant (SaRA) uses advanced diagnostics to report known problems and details about your Microsoft Outlook configuration. Reported problems are linked to public-facing documentation (usually a Microsoft Knowledge Base article) for possible fixes. If you're a Helpdesk professional, you can review customer reports that are generated in HTML format.

The SaRA scenario that is described in this article replaces the Outlook scanning functionality that was originally provided by the Office Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT).

For more information about SaRA, see About the Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant.

System requirements

The following operating systems are supported:

Windows 10

How to scan an Outlook configuration for known issues

The Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant can resolve issues in many programs. To scan Outlook for known issues and create a detailed report of your Outlook configuration, follow these steps:

Select Advanced diagnostics, and then select Next.
Select Outlook, and then select Next.
When you are prompted to confirm that you are using the affected machine, select Yes, and then select Next.
After your account is validated in Office 365, the scan automatically begins.
You see the following error message if your account is in Office 365 and SaRA cannot validate your credentials.
If you select Back to reenter your credentials, and you see this same error, select Back again, and then use the following sample credentials to mimic a non-Office 365 account:
- Email address: juliet@contoso.com
- Password: <any password that you want to use>
Any non-Office 365 account will not be authenticated through the Office 365 service. In this case, SaRA gives you an option to continue. Select the Next button to continue.
The scan is complete when you see We're done collecting your Outlook configuration details.
