With the Standard Installation for Windows®, an easy-to-use Windows® GUI installer installs SysInfo™ quickly on Windows® based Operating Systems. This is the fastest and easiest means of installing SysInfo™. We strongly recommend nearly all customers install using this method as this will save you significant time.
Choose the product distribution file you wish to download. The available product distributions for download are as follows:
| Product Distribution Name | Product Distribution File | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Full runtime environment (Recommended for end users) | mcsysinfo-9-H14-os-arch.exe | Standard end-user runtime with CLI, GUI, agent. You likely just want this distribution file. |
| Runtime environment without any user interface | mcsysinfo-9-H14-os-arch-noui.exe | This distribution does not include the CLI or GUI, but does include everything you need to output mcsysinforeport(5) data. This product file is intended for our OEM customers. |
You likely will only need the Full runtime environment distribution.
Follow the instructions to Download the product distribution file you choose in the previous step.
You should have a file named mcsysinfo-9-H14-os-arch.exe
e.g. For a Windows x86 distribution, the file would
be called mcsysinfo-9-H14-win-x86.exe
Quit all running instances of SysInfo™.
Log on to the system using the
Administrator account or
any account in the
Administrators group.
If you do not install SysInfo™ with these privileges, SysInfo™ will not be
able to provide its full compliment of data.
Launch the installation by double clicking on the
mcsysinfo-9-H14-os-arch.exe

If any version of SysInfo™ is detected as already being installed, the installer will prompt you to uninstall it before proceeding. Only one version of SysInfo™ may be installed at a time so you need to remove the previous version.
