Earlier version of diagnostics app was very good.still working good. This version is not showing the results properly. Need immediate attention.

The app couldn't detect the error code even after trying 20 times with different setups. It would be helpful to at least have a look up table to identify the codes yourself based on the beep frequencies.

99% of the time, no code is identified. The times it does show a code, it is not an actual code. Double checked permissions. Removed the bottom of the laptop to make the volume even loaded. Tried is an absolutely quiet room. Nothing but add extra frustration is what this app does for me.
