Diagnostic Tool

Prev Next

The Diagnostic Tool is designed to aid troubleshooting Trellix DLP Endpoint problems on Microsoft Windows endpoint computers. It is not supported on OS X computers.

The Diagnostic Tool gathers information on the performance of client software. The IT team uses this information to troubleshoot problems and tune policies. When severe problems exist, it can be used to collect data for analysis by the Trellix DLP development team.

The tool is installed with the Trellix DLP Endpoint client software package. Look for hdlpDiag.exe in the C:\Program Files\McAfee\DLP\Agent\Tools folder. Double-click hdlpDiag.exe and enter the validation code to open the diagnostic tool utility. It consists of seven tabbed pages, each devoted to a different aspect of Trellix DLP Endpoint software operation.
