Network Monitor 3.1 OneClick is a simple tool to quickly get a network trace – usually used to upload traces to Microsoft Product Support. By running this tool, you are prompted to install the Network Monitor tool and start a capture. The capture is completed once the user stops it or 2 hours has elapsed.
There are two One Click Packages. The Autorun package and the ExtractOnly
package.
- Autorun: Running this utility will install NM3.1 on your machine (if you do not already have a previous version of NM3) and begin capturing. The capture will terminate after 2 hours, or if you press the ‘x’ key on your keyboard. If you did not have NM3 on your machine previously, NM3.1 will
subsequently be uninstalled. - ExtractOnly: Use the ExtractOnly package if you want to save the OneClick utility to a portable device, e.g., a USB key and later run the tool on a different machine. The extract only package will extract all the necessary files needed to run One Click to a user-specified destination folder. If you
place the files on the root of a flash drive, One Click will run automatically when you insert the drive. You can also run One Click by double clicking the file "OneClick.cmd" in the destination folder.
Additional Information
- On Windows Vista, if you have NM3 already installed and you are already in the Netmon Users group you should be able to run One Click with your user credentials without encountering problems.
If you do not have NM3 already installed or you are not in the Netmon Users group, you will need to run One Click as an administrator, otherwise you will get an "Access Denied" error when you run the utility. To run One Click as an administrator:
- Save the Autorun.exe file to your machine, right click on the exe and select "Run as administrator".
- For ExtractOnly.exe, right click on the file OneClick.cmd which is extracted to your destination folder, and select "Run as administrator".
