Settings
If you are running System Informer from a USB drive, you may want to save System Informer’s settings there as well. To do this, create a blank file named “SystemInformer.exe.settings.xml” in the same directory as SystemInformer.exe. You can do this using Windows Explorer:
- Make sure “Hide extensions for known file types” is unticked in Tools > Folder options > View.
- Right-click in the folder and choose New > Text Document.
- Rename the file to SystemInformer.exe.settings.xml (delete the “.txt” extension).
Plugins
Plugins can be configured from Informer > Plugins.
If you experience any crashes involving plugins, make sure they are up to date.
Disk and Network information provided by the ExtendedTools plugin is only available when running System Informer with administrative rights.
