Hi,
I have been using your product for quite a while now and have written tutorials for it as well to show people just how useful it is. I help out very regularly on TSF (TechSupportForum.com) which is a free support site for people, and have been actively getting users to download and run your program for some time now so that it may give us a decent look at their system specs so we are able to help them out. The reason we like the program so much there is the very detailed and organised way in which the information is presented, and the ability for users to upload a snapshot of their PC that can be opened and viewed by any of the staff on their PC's via their version of Speccy.
However, it was pointed out that in the outputted .speccy file the Windows Product Key is also made visible to other users to see, under Operating System information. This is a no-no as it was with Belarc Advisor about 5 years ago which is why most Tech Forums these days never use, nor advise the use of Belarc which used to be the main program that support forums advised people to use. Now users are being advised not to use Speccy as a way of posting their information to tech forums as there are privacy issues involved as there was with Belarc, which is a massive shame.
Your program is a great tool for people to use on such forums, and a great way for your product to be seen and used by a great many people, as tech forums used to like users to upload their .speccy files due to it's gui. For now, using CPU-Z is the second best option, but it is very limited in the details that are outputted and readability. I do understand though that this information is useful to the user though.
Is there a way for users to upload a .speccy file, but one that will omit the users Product Key, or could this be a consideration in future releases, where the user is given the option to include a Product Key if they wish. (Product Key would be omitted by default)
Kind regards,
Richard
Hope that makes sense?
