This is the portable version of HWiNFO64, an application that provides you with complete information about your system's inner workings.
Since installation is not necessary, you can store HWiNFO64 on an external device, plug it into any computer and directly run its executable file. What's more important is the fact that your Windows registry entries will remain intact.
The interface of the program is simple and intuitive. Upon initialization, HWiNFO64 automatically checks for updates online. Also, you can view a system summary.
So, you can find out information when it comes to the central processor, motherboard memory, bus, monitor, drives, audio, network and ports.
Furthermore, you can analyze sensors and find out their current, minimum and maximum size, as well along with temperature (toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit) and others.
Plus, you can configure sensors settings (e.g. add all items to tray, enable sidebar support and alerting), export the log file to the CSV format, as well as reset the minimum and maximum values.
Moreover, you can create a full report and export it to a text log file, HTML, XML or other formats, copy a line or result, as well as modify program options (e.g. set the IDE drive scan mode, CPU clock measurement, minimize sensors or the main window on startup, disable auto update). Settings can be restored to their default value at any time.
The lightweight tool requires a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, includes a brief help file and ran smoothly during our tests. We haven't come across any difficulties and highly recommend Portable HWiNFO64 to all users.
