In the Specify the location of the ASU.exe file on endpoint field, enter an absolute path to the ASU.exe file on the target server.
The collection’s settings use this path to invoke the ASU.exe file to detect the settings. If you do not type the correct path, it is unable to detect the ASU.exe file as shown in the following figure.
