About This Feature
Overview
Installation Directory Integrity Check is a maintenance feature in WPS Office for Windows that checks whether files in the installation directory are complete. It helps you investigate startup problems, missing features, and runtime errors that may be related to damaged or changed installation files.
Core capabilities:
- Run an integrity check from the Settings page.
- View a result dialog after the scan finishes.
- Cancel the check while it is in progress.
This feature is useful when WPS starts abnormally, some functions are missing, or you want to verify the installation after an update or unexpected system change.

| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Operating system | A Windows device that can run the WPS Office desktop client |
| App version | Using the latest version of WPS Office is recommended |
| Network | No mandatory network connection is required for the local integrity check |

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Provides an in-app Installation Directory Integrity Check entry in Settings to scan installation files and show a result dialog. | Microsoft provides Office repair options through Windows app management, including Quick Repair and Online Repair for the Office installation. | Google Docs focuses on browser and offline troubleshooting, such as extensions, cache, and offline settings, rather than a desktop installation directory check. | Notion provides reset steps, local data cleanup, and reinstall guidance for desktop troubleshooting. | Adobe Acrobat provides launch troubleshooting, repair, permission checks, and reinstall steps for desktop app issues. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: You can start the check directly inside the WPS client. Distinct: The check is focused on installation directory file completeness for a quick first diagnosis. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft repair is broader and usually starts from Windows app management rather than an in-app integrity check entry. | Compared with WPS: Google Docs troubleshooting is browser-centered and does not provide a desktop installation file integrity check. | Compared with WPS: Notion emphasizes reset and local data removal instead of a dedicated installation integrity check entry. | Compared with WPS: Adobe emphasizes repair, permissions, plugins, and reinstall workflows; WPS offers a more direct in-app check entry for this scenario. |

Overall Conclusion
If you want a quick way to check whether WPS installation files are intact, WPS provides a more direct in-app path. Microsoft, Notion, and Adobe also offer repair or reset workflows, but they are more focused on system repair, local data cleanup, or reinstallation, while Google Docs mainly addresses browser-based troubleshooting.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable for | Main issue | Recommended approach |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Startup troubleshooting | Everyday desktop users | WPS does not open normally or exits unexpectedly | Run the integrity check first to confirm whether installation files are complete |
| 2 | Missing feature review | Users who need a specific function | Some commands or modules appear to be missing | Use the result to determine whether installation files may be incomplete |
| 3 | Error pre-check | Users seeing runtime errors | It is unclear whether the issue comes from a file or the app installation | Run the integrity check before moving to repair or reinstall steps |
| 4 | Post-install verification | Users after installation or update | You want to confirm the client is in a healthy state | Open Settings and run the check once |
| 5 | Scan control | Users who need to stop the process | The scan needs to be interrupted | Click Cancel during the check |
