 Warnings

• The Windows in 64 bit Mode capability returns FALSE when running on an ARM64 platform, even though the underlying platform is still 64 bit. This is to ensure your legacy installation scripts do not mistakenly deploy AMD64/EM64T compiled binaries and/or application runtimes onto an incompatible ARM64 environment. Even though both platforms are 64 bit, they are incompatible and mutually exclusive.
• The Windows on ARM capability returns TRUE only when running on an ARM64 platform. You may still use the Set 64 Bit Mode command on either ARM64 or AMD64/EM64T platforms to enable 64 bit deployment.

• This function only checks for a minimum capability. For instance, if you are checking for 32 MB Physical Memory, the function will return TRUE if the target system contains at least 32 MB physical memory, or more.
• If you need to check for an exact operating system or service pack level (and not "at least or newer"), use the Get OS or SP Level command instead.
• Some capabilities, such as the IIS Anonymous User Account capability, are not returned as TRUE or FALSE values, but as their actual values on the target system. If the requested capability is not available, the return is an empty string.
• The Logged on User Priviledge Level capability returns the following values, with the meanings as described in the table below.
  
  

  Value	Meaning
  ADMIN	The logged on user is a system administrator.
  POWER	The logged on user is a power user (also called a user)..
  USER	The logged on user is a user (also called a limited user).
  GUEST	The logged on user is a guest, with very limited rights.

• The Processor Architecture capability returns the following values, with the meanings as described in the table below.
  
  

  Value	Meaning
  UNKNOWN	An unknown processor architecture.
  X86	Intel 32 bit compatible architecture.
  IA64	Intel Itanium 64 bit compatible architecture.
  AMD64	X64 (Intel EM64T or AMD64) 64 bit compatible architecture.
  ARM64	ARM64 64 bit compatible architecture.
