os.ServicePack=TL00+,SP01+When you run Prerequisite Scanner, it scans and checks for different prerequisite properties depending upon the logged in user and the operating system and version that is installed on the computer.
For example, Table 1 outlines
the different sections that contain the prerequisite properties that
are checked based on the example.
| Operating systems and versions | Sections with prerequisite properties |
