    System_Info v3.2: See MSFN or reboot.pro

    Portable App for System Management and to collect System Properties such as Firmware (UEFI Or BIOS) and Partition Style (MBR Or GPT) and Operating System, Architecture and Drives, and Windows + Office Keys

    The Save System Info button is quite useful and will present the System Properties in a TXT File.

    System_Info is working OK in Windows 7/8/10 and in Win PE.

    I might have mentioned this one before, but here's one for checking various drivers:

    atmzzrSystemCheck v3.5: See RynVM or automizzer

    Tips:

    - If you hover the system field (the identified one on the right) you'll see a hint with original product name and version number - useful for users with modified OSes;

    - When you hover the DirectX version field you may see a hint if DirectX 9.0c is also installed - on newer OSes;

    - In case of getting 'mismatch' status for Flash Plugin, Java or VC++ hover the field for details;

    - Colored 'LEDs' determine the state of plugins and allow to download them if necessary, if the plugin is up-to-date double-click on the green diode opens the latest link;

    - You can use keyboard shortcuts for: help [F1], .txt file save [CTRL+S] and close [ESC];

    - You can change background and text colors also the background image with an .ini file (continue reading for details).

    Notes:

    - This program is compatible with all Windows versions from 5.1 to 6.4 and 10 [XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, 7, 2012, 8, 8.1, 10] x86|x64;

    • WinXPx64 | Win2003x64 users may need to install KB960037-XP | KB978334-2003 hotfix for this program to work correctly;

    - It's only one .exe - no installation, no changes to user system;

    - Available command-line switches:
      /offline - runs the program in offline mode (without updates).
      /log - save only .txt file without the main screen and updates.
        /? - show help.

    Configuration:

    You can change colors of the: background, labels (left column), versions (right column), notes for .Net,
    notifications and buttons text/background also the background image

    All you have to do is to place a file named 'atmzzrSystemCheck.ini' in the same folder as the program
    with proper values and format

    Example .ini file - example - download and edit for your needs
    Example background image file - background
    Example final look - screen

    Leave the lines of colors you don't want to change blank and it will be in default colors
    Background image must be in the same folder as the app and .ini file, blank line means no background image
    Remember to not mess the lines order or numbers

    If atmzzrSystemCheck.ini is not detected the program loads by default.

    ------------

    The actual "program" is an HTA, which is easily copied from its temporarily installed location for use in a ppApp.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I've found both of these little programs to be quite informative and useful.

    I thought the inclusion and use of DevCon, ie Device Console from MS, was interesting. I don't think I had ever heard of it, but it looks like it could be useful at times when you really needed to work with, update, or find out about the devices that Windows thinks are on your system. To quote MS:

    System_Info v4.0 remains compatible, and has been tested with, Windows 7/8/10 and Windows 10XPE.
