How do I run SDP diagnostics on a computer that has no internet connection?

The diagnostic tool gathers configuration information about a computer/server/environment, packages this information in a .cab file, and sends it to Microsoft using the Upload_Results.exe application.

If the computer you run the diagnostic on is not connected to the internet, you have to move or copy the upload results folder and the files it contains (Readme, Config.xml, Results*.cab, Upload_Results.exe) to an internet connected computer and run the Upload_Results.exe application contained within, to securely send the diagnostic results to your support professional.

Since the steps to run the SDP diagnostic on a computer that has no Internet connection are different from described here:
