Thank-you.. I did try your suggestion, but no luck.

And yes, though XP is out of support, some of the machines at my customer’s infrastructure still run on it. So, I have to somehow get oscap working here.

Regards,

I'm still stuck in this issue on Windows XP. Any help in this is really appreciated.



Well, XP is not even supported by Microsoft any more now, so it's possible that this XP problem is practically unsolvable. Having said that,

claims that sometimes long file names trip up execution; they specifically say

Make sure the program or file you're attempting to run does not contain the same name as the long file name directory that contains the file.

so maybe try to install the file in a different location, not containing the word 'oscap'. This doesn't make sense to me either, but there's Windows for you.
