I have a question. Is it possible to report on only one domain in the forest? It appears what I am seeing the requirement is to report on all domain within the forest?
Correct?

The original script author did not add a way to restrict the script to a single domain. Sorry.

I had to use Google Translate to figure out what you said.
The original script author never added HTML or Text output options. I have no plans to add those to this script. Sorry.

Hello Carl, Thanks for all of your efforts.
when I got through the download link it give me invalid link error.

The links were not supposed to expire. I assume there was an update to ShareFile that reset all my links as you are not the first to report a dead link. I will go through and check the links to every download.
Thanks for letting me know.

Hi,
First, thank you for taking the time and effort to put this script together. Does this script support the Office 365 Word version?
I’m getting an error message at the very end when trying to create the document. The error message is “Unable to save the output file, c:\[path]\ADHealthCheck_v2_Signed.ps1:4306 char:1.
I have sufficient disk space and i’m able to use your other script, ADDS_Inventory_V3_Signed.ps1, just fine to create a Word doc output.
Thanks,
Rod

The vast majority of times, the fix for this issue is to do a full online repair of Office. Because Office has no PowerShell cmdlets, I have to use COMObjects and they are a PITA to work with.
The author of that script only provided Word output. I don’t use that script, so I have not taken the time to add HTML and Text output options.
Thanks
