User Notes for Supported Windows Operating Systems
In the Prerequisite Checker screen, the following error message may be displayed: "An error
occurred while attempting to execute a Visual Basic Script. Please confirm that Visual Basic files
are installed correctly."
This error occurs when the Prerequisite Checker calls the Dell OpenManage "vbstest.vbs" (a Visual
Basic [VB]) script to verify the installation environment fails.

1. Incorrect Internet Explorer "Security" settings.
To resolve this, do one of the following:
Enable “Active Scripting”.
To do so, click “Tools" -> "Internet Options" -> "Security" -> "Custom Level" -> "Scripting" ->
"Active Scripting" -> "Enable."
Enable "Scripting of Java Applets”.
To do so, click "Tools" -> "Internet Options" -> "Security" -> "Custom Level" -> "Scripting" ->
"Scripting of Java Applets" -> "Enable.
2. Windows Scripting Host (WSH) has disabled the running of VB scripts.
You can configure WSH to prevent “.VBS” scripts from being run.

To do so, right-click "My Computer" and go to "Open" -> "Tools" -> "Folder Options" -> "File
Types." Ensure that "File Types" is set to "VBScript Script File".
If not, click "Change" and choose "Microsoft Windows Based Script Host.
