System Info Checker

System Info Checker is a safe, read-only desktop GUI app for viewing common system, hardware, network, and runtime information on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

It does not spoof, hide, randomize, bypass, or change hardware identifiers. It only displays information gathered through normal read-only APIs, shell tools, system files, PowerShell/CIM queries, and read-only registry access where available.

Features

• Modern PySide6 dashboard interface with summary cards and sectioned details
• Search system details without leaving the main view
• Quickly refresh system information without restarting the app
• Copy individual details or the full report to the clipboard
• Redact sensitive values in the app before copying or saving reports
• Save the full report as a .txt file or .json snapshot
• Compare the current scan against a saved JSON snapshot
• Gracefully shows Unavailable when a field cannot be read
• Does not require administrator privileges
• Cross-platform launch scripts for Windows, macOS, and Linux
• Organized for future PyInstaller packaging

Requirements

• Python 3.10 or newer

Quick Start

Download or clone the project.

On Windows, double-click:

run.bat

On macOS or Linux, run:

chmod +x run.sh
./run.sh

The launcher creates a local .venv, installs the required packages, and starts the app.

If Windows SmartScreen or your browser warns about downloaded scripts, review the file first. It only creates a Python virtual environment, installs requirements.txt, and runs main.py.

Run From PowerShell

You can also run:

.\run.ps1

If PowerShell blocks scripts on your system, use:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\run.ps1

Manual Run

On Windows, open PowerShell in the project folder and run:

python -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.py

If PowerShell blocks virtual environment activation, run this once for the current PowerShell session:

Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass

On macOS or Linux, open a terminal in the project folder and run:

python3 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.py

Package Later With PyInstaller

After installing dependencies, you can create a single executable with:

pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller --noconsole --onefile --name "System Info Checker" main.py

On Windows, the packaged app will be created under dist\. On macOS and Linux, it will be created under dist/.

Safety Notes

This project is intentionally read-only:

• No registry writes
• No hardware identifier changes
• No spoofing or randomization
• No anti-cheat, licensing, ban evasion, or bypass behavior
• No administrator privileges required

Some fields depend on OS APIs, firmware support, adapter settings, installed command-line tools, or permission boundaries. If the operating system does not expose a value, the app displays Unavailable. On newer macOS versions, Wi-Fi SSIDs may be shown as Hidden by macOS privacy when read-only system APIs mask the network name.
