Topic Description

[ACT Tools, Packages, and Services](act-tools-packages-and-services.md)

The Application Compatibility Toolkit is included with the Windows ADK. [Download the Windows ADK.](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=526740)

[ACT Deployment Options](act-deployment-options.md)

While planning your deployment of the Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT), consider which computers you want running the various tools, packages, and services for ACT.

[ACT Database Configuration](act-database-configuration.md)

The Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT) uses a Microsoft® SQL Server® database for storing and sharing compatibility issue data. If you do not use Microsoft SQL Server, you can download and install Microsoft SQL Server Express. For information about creating Microsoft SQL Server databases, see [Administering the Database Engine](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=64169).

[ACT Database Migration](act-database-migration.md)

The schema for an ACT database can change when ACT is updated or when a new version of ACT is released. If the schema for an ACT database does not match the current schema, you can migrate the compatibility data to a new database. You can then use the current version of ACT to open the new database.

[ACT LPS Share Permissions](act-lps-share-permissions.md)

To upload log files to the ACT Log Processing Service (LPS) share, certain permissions must be set at the share level and folder level.
