How do I manually check whether the browsers have been downloaded correctly for the Web Transaction (Browser) monitor?

After you download and add Firefox or Chrome browsers manually for the Web Transaction (Browser) monitor in Windows On-Premise Poller, you can check whether the process has happened correctly by using the following steps.

 

For Windows On-Premise Poller
In the location where you've installed your Site24x7 On-Premise Poller, you can check the file availability of the following:

<Site24x7OnPremisePoller>/RealBrowser/chromev101/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe

 <Site24x7OnPremisePoller>/RealBrowser/chromev101/chromedriver.exe

 <Site24x7OnPremisePoller>/RealBrowser/firefoxv101/firefox/firefox.exe

<Site24x7OnPremisePoller>/RealBrowser/firefoxv101/firefox/geckodriver.exe
