Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool resources

The Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT) gathers diagnostic data for analysis by support professionals. MSDT is the engine used to run legacy Windows built-in troubleshooters. There are currently 28 built-in troubleshooters for MSDT. Half of the built-in troubleshooters have already been redirected to the Get Help platform, while the other half will be retired.

If you're using MSDT to run custom troubleshooting packages, it will be available as a Feature on Demand before the tool is fully retired in 2025. This change will allow you to continue to use MSDT to run custom troubleshooting packages while transitioning to a new platform. Contact Microsoft support for Windows if you require additional assistance.
