You can use the FAIL program to display any operating system error message on Windows and Unix platforms, even for errors generated by other programs. For example, suppose you are checking an event log and it contains a message with Win32 error code 5, but no text. If you run FAIL 0 5, you will see the text of this Windows, error, code - in this case "Access is Denied".
