Overview
Autodesk has licensed ClearApps technology to address your Autodesk software audit needs. Autodesk Inventory
Advisor (AIA) provides the ability to use a small utility in a manual audit from a USB stick or network share. The data
collected from the scan is automatically saved in a subfolder in the same location the agent utility is run from.

Manual scan
Unzip the contents of the ZIP file and copy the 4 files to a USB drive or network share

To launch the scan, simply double-click iadvisoragnt.exe. You will see a command window open indicating the scan is in
progress. It should take less than 10 seconds to complete and the window will automatically close:

The results of the scan will be placed in an Information folder in the same directory as iadvisoragnt.exe. It will be a
single file and be uniquely named based on the computer that was scanned:

Once you have run the agent utility on all your computers, compress (ZIP) the information folder and email back to your
Autodesk representative.
