When the tool is downloaded from the Microsoft Sysinternals website <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/> it is important to save and identify previous versions since Microsoft does not provide older versions and the release notes do not detail what has been fixed. Microsoft has a fast release cycle, forcing users to test very carefully and to keep track of versions.

Another important piece of information is that there is no support from Microsoft on the Sysinternal tools—they are free and provided as is. This means that a testing plan for the environment it is deployed on should be formulated, tested, implemented, and improved upon as new versions of Sysmon are released.
