Printing Belarc

In case of a machine crash, it would seem that a nice document to have
around would be a printout of a Belarc Advisor analysis. But I cannot
figure out how to do so. Can someone please tell me how one can do this?
I am hoping that PrntScrn is not the only way.

Thank you very much.

The report is output to your default browser. Simply click on File > Print, or
Preview then print.

As an alternative, if you have a PDF print driver, select that first and then
print to it.

I have a file

belarc_output.html

and a folder

belarc_output_files

in one of my working folders. And that tells me, I was
using Firefox, and I saved the Belarc browser output in HTML format.
The belarc_output_files folder contains the GIF files for
the decorations on the web page.

I might have used "Save page as" "Web page complete", to have it
save the HTML file and the folder of graphics elements.

If I double-click the belarc_output.html file I saved,
I'm again able to see my Belarc results.

When you save the Belarc output, whether in a print or
in some other format, don't forget to cover up the
License Keys in the "Software License" section. Occasionally,
a poster here will post their Belarc output, including
the Software License section. If you plan to do that, don't
copy the license keys into the posting. There is no point giving
your WinXP license key to the world :)

Paul,

The OP was asking about a printout.

The report that Belarc generates is an HTML file and it's saved in the folder
"C:/Program Files\Belarc\Advisor\System\tmp". This file is replaced whenever a
new report is generated.

Thank you for your responses Paul, David. Both helpful!

I'm embarassed. There was at least one response before yours. I slipped
and pushed the wrong key and lost it before I even got to read it. Could
you, or some other kind soul, reply to that post to reinstall it into the
thread so that I might know what was said?

Thank you very much,

You can find these threads on Google. Most of the time. With some luck...
The interesting thing in this case, is the thread is not complete!

http://groups.google.ca/group/micro...eneral/browse_thread/thread/5ba232cecb51a1ab#

To get a complete thread, without visiting a Microsoft page, I had
to use a leech site.

http://www.technologyquestions.com/technology/windows-xp/486350-printing-belarc.html

Google likes to use their search engine to point to leech sites, because
of the Google AdWords staged on the sites. At one time, the Google search
engine wasn't entirely focused on generating revenue (it actually gave
good results), but that has changed. Now, the users are expected to flail
about, generating adbertising revenue as a side-effect of their clicks.

Thank you, Paul. I wondered what was going on. I actually did try Google
myself, several times, and was unable to bring up the thread. It acted
like it just wasn't there. Your explanation helps. I thought that I was
doing something wrong. Thanks again and regards, D.
