Applies To: System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP2, System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager SP1, System Center Configuration Manager (current branch)

You can perform most actions and configure most settings for the System Center Configuration Manager Upgrade Assessment Tool in the console. However, to modify the default values for some settings and to start the process to remove upgrade assessment data, you must configure specific registry values on the computer that runs the Upgrade Assessment Tool.

To use the registry to configure settings or start actions for the Upgrade Assessment Tool

  1. Open the registry on the computer that runs the Upgrade Assessment Tool.

    Warning

    If you use the Registry Editor incorrectly, you might cause serious problems that might require you to reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using the Registry Editor incorrectly. Use the Registry Editor at your own risk.

  2. Locate the UAT sub-key by browsing to the following path:

    - For a 32-bit operating system:

  **HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\SMS\\UAT**

- For a 64-bit operating system:

  **HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE\\Software\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\SMS\\UAT**

  3. Use the following table to configure the appropriate registry key to specify a setting or start an action for the Upgrade Assessment Tool.
