2.6.1.1 comes with the following changes:

  • Adds TSV (Tab Separated Value) support
  • Fixes Hostname not exporting with Results
  • Fixes Check Skipping not being accounted for in Exit Code Value
  • Adds ability to export additional system info using /extras or /ex
  • Changed Exported Result files to use Hostname if no filename is specified, or if the filename is a directory

Not seeing some Extra Data that you want? Create an issue!

I need your opinion!

Additionally, I have been reached out by a Key Marketplace I have previously bought from in the past for a potential discount affiliate code/sponsorship thing. I don't want to feel like a sellout but it could be a nice kickback if you all think I should go through with it. If you have a moment, please leave your opinion!
