When a PC needs to be documented or its components identified, Free PC Audit gathers hardware and software details in one place. The portable utility also shows installed programs, including their version information and product keys.
Hardware and software inventory
Free PC Audit scans the computer and presents details about its hardware components alongside information about installed software. The software inventory includes program versions and product keys, making the utility useful when recording what is installed on a machine or gathering details for technical support.
The results provide a reference for identifying the computer’s components and installed programs. This can also help when checking which software is already present before troubleshooting or updating a system.
Portable system checks
The application does not require installation and can run from removable media, including a USB flash drive or CD-ROM. This allows a technician to carry it between computers and collect an inventory without setting up the tool separately on each one.
- Start the utility from a removable drive on the PC being checked.
- Use the hardware and software details as a system reference.
