Though Windows XP is mentioned in the System Requirements the setup.exe cannot be run in Win XP. It "is not a valid Windows 32-bit application file". In Windows 10 the program runs but I cannot find out how to make any WLAN troubleshooting.

I have v1.5.1, and that is running fine. It found my main NIC, and the interface is responsive. Based on the comments I'm seeing here, I think I won't "upgrade." It does what it says...it's not a particularly unique or powerful tool in my opinion, but it's okay (assuming it works, of course, which is has been for me).

dot11Expert is a small app, just short of 7.5 MB -- ~4.5 MB if you get rid of or don't count the uninstall files. Installation adds the program's folder, plus a folder under Users\ [UserName]\ AppData\ Roaming\, adding one HKLM registry key for uninstall & one HKCU key for KC Softwares\dot11Expert.
I monitored installation & ran dot11Expert in a Win7 VM. Starting the app caused the browser to open a web page to a forum post talking about an error when the WLAN AutoConfig service wasn't running. In the app, clicking the logs option under the "?" menu also showed that service wasn't running. Starting the service from the Control Panel -> Admin Tools -> Services app fixed that.
It does work, & as stated in the description, it only shows info for Wi-Fi -- the screen shots on today's GOTD page show what to expect.

So . . . . . . . How did this get so many thumbs up??? Hmmm???

As the previous comments have pointed out, after installation it does absolutely nothing, as you can't select anything, as it doesn't detect anything. Rather pointless really.

I downloaded this to diagnose a network issue I'm having on an old WindowsXP machine, but when I try to install it by running the included Setup.exe file, my computer says that it is "not a valid Win32 application" ???

Doesn't find a Network adapter..................
Save | Cancel
Well, it appears to work when I installed on a Windows 10 tablet (NuVision brand). It found the adapter and networks. I could look at the adapter statistics and a couple of other reports. Not sure why I would actually need it but it's installed now so will considfer it a tool if ever needed.

Been using the freeware version of this tool for a few years... without any problems. No clue why it doesn't work for you but for me it works flawlessly.

Doesn't find a Network adapter,
Save | Cancel
Doesn't seem to do anything. Apparently I've no network adapter. Nor can I select an access point. I'm unable to select a network. I went over to the dot11Expert forums and that hasn't being updated since Dec. 2017. Disappointed.
