NWinfo is a lightweight and portable tool for Windows, developed to provide detailed information about a computer's hardware and system. Created as an open-source utility by a1ive, NWinfo is available in two versions: one with a graphical user interface (GUI) and another based on command line (CLI), both compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit systems. This duality makes the tool versatile, catering to both regular users and IT professionals who need advanced functionalities.
When running the program (gnwinfo.exe for 32-bit or gnwinfo64.exe for 64-bit), a simple and intuitive interface displays essential information, such as:
Operating System: version, build, and uptime.
User Login: status of the current user.
BIOS: manufacturer and version.
Hardware: details about the processor, RAM, GPU, and monitors.
Storage: information about HDDs, SSDs, NVMe drives, and M.2 devices.
The command line version offers more advanced functionalities, allowing:
Specifying parameters for specific components.
Exporting data in formats like JSON, YAML, or LUA.
Hiding sensitive information, such as MAC addresses or serial numbers.
Generating detailed reports or monitoring CPU, RAM, and storage usage in real-time.
Portability: Does not require installation, can be run directly from a USB drive on any Windows machine.
Direct Data Collection: Obtains information directly from the hardware, without relying on WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation), ensuring greater speed and accuracy.
Compatibility: Works even on older systems, like Windows XP.
Advanced Detailing: Provides data on SMBIOS, CPUID, S.M.A.R.T., PCI, EDID, and much more, covering everything from processor specifications to the health of storage devices.
With its combination of simplicity and power, NWinfo is an efficient solution for those seeking a complete and precise view of a computer's system and hardware.
