Windows PC Diagnostic Utility

Winscout is a non-invasive, Windows PC diagnostic utility with no external dependencies.

Instructions:

  • Download and unzip the archive.
  • Open CMD as an Administrator, then run winscout-full.bat
  • REQUIRED: winscout-main.bat and tee.bat must be in the same directory prior to running the script.
  • The script should take 1-2 minutes to complete if you skip sfc /verifynow (system file check).
  • Opting to run Memory Check (mdsched.exe) will immediately reboot your PC in order to begin this test.

Types of information gathered:

  • system event logs (error/critical)
  • baseboard, BIOS, CPU
  • RAM, available/reserved memory
  • disks, volumes, partitions
  • drive fragmentation percentage
  • CHKDSK and SMART* failure prediction statistics (*if available)
  • network interfaces
  • ping & tracert times to localhost and google.com
  • OPTIONAL: sfc /verifynow checks for damaged system files. Select 'Y' when prompted if you wish to run this.
  • OPTIONAL: mdsched.exe reboots and checks the health of your RAM. Select 'Y' when prompted if you wish to run this.
