Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/visiuun/pc-info-gatherer.git cd pc-info-gatherer
-
Run the script:
python pc_info.py
Note: On Linux and macOS, some information (especially disk serial numbers and memory details) requires root privileges. Run the script with
sudo
:sudo python pc_info.py
On Windows, run the command prompt or PowerShell as an administrator.
-
Output:
The script will print the gathered PC information to the console. The output can be lengthy, consider redirecting it to a file for easier examination:
