# Validate a Tool with a Tightening Program

1. In the Tightening menu, choose Tightening program library or Multistep program library. If required, select a specific program in the list. Note that validation can be performed both for the entire list of programs, or for individual programs.

2. Select the tool icon in the upper right corner.

3. In the pop-up window, choose the tool to validate the tightening program against, and click Validate.

   If a tightening program is not compatible with the selected tool, it will be indicated by a red circle with an exclamation point.
