Another FREE System Information Utility


There are so many free system information utility now. Some of the popular ones are CPU-Z, PC Wizard and Everest. However, most of those system information utility list out a lot of useless memory address and unnecessary information which not many people would understand.

So here's "System Spec". A utility to produce a specification of your system's hardware and software and lists a specification of your Windows PC without listing lots of useless memory address and unnecessary information. This tool doesn't require any installation. Just download and run the single executable file.

With System Spec you can see, save and print a complete spec of your PC. This no-install, system information utility can also perform various windows functions. Additional advanced info includes CPU, drives, applications, display, memory, networking, internet, CD / DVD drives and more.

System Spec is able to extract Main System Info, Personal Info, Memory, Display, Drives, CPU, Internet, Programs, Network, Adapter, and Sound information from your computer. As you can see, depending on your needs, it can be very basic and it can be advanced as well.

System Spec has the ability to display the serial number used to install your Windows.


Thankfully when you export to HTML, it doesn't export the serial number like what Belarc Advisor does. Belarc Advisor program exports the Windows product key into the HTML and surprisingly, you can easily search for it and illegally use other people's Windows product key. I have no idea how did the HTML ended up on a webserver on the first place.

There's some very useful keyboard shortcut built-in to the program. If you press CTRL+C simultaneously on the program, you will get the message "System information copied to clipboard". This means that the basic information displayed on System Spec are copied to clipboard. If you open a notepad and press the key CTRL+V to paste, it will paste the information to your notepad. You can also save your system information to CSV by pressing F2. Printing the full spec only requires you to press CTRL+P.

Note: The author of System Spec mentioned that McAfee antivirus might report System Spec as backdoor trojan. I've tried scanning with VirusTotal and none of the antivirus reported anything suspicious. Most probably McAfee has fixed the false alarm.
