lmacri Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Does anyone know why the portable build of Speccy v1.32 (spsetup132.zip) is not posted on the builds page at https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy/builds? Has Avast stopped offering the portable build or are the links on the builds page currently missing? I tried the download link for the the portable build on MajorGeeks at https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/speccy.html but that link is currently downloading the incorrect "standard" installer (spsetup132.exe). I eventually found an copy of the correct portable build (spsetup132.zip) archived on Softpedia site at https://www.softpedia.com/get/PORTABLE-SOFTWARE/System/System-Info/Speccy-Portable.shtml but when I post download links for other users in help forums I prefer to direct them to the original manufacturer's site. -----------64-bit Win 10 Pro Ver 1903 Build 18362.356 * Firefox ESR v68.2.0 * McAfee LiveSafe v16 (R20) / VirusScan v22.6.156 * Speccy Portable v1.32.740 Dell Inspiron 5584, Intel i5-8265U@1.60/1.80 GHz, 8 GB RAM, Intel UHD Graphics 620 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's concerning, though, that Avast/Piriform has known since 10-Oct-2019 that the download links to the Slim and Portable versions of these three utilities are broken and still haven't fixed them. When I'm helping someone troubleshoot a problem and ask them to publish a Speccy snapshot of their system, running Speccy Portable from a USB thumb drive is sometimes their only viable option. -----------64-bit Win 10 Pro Ver 1903 Build 18362.356 * Firefox ESR v68.2.0 * McAfee LiveSafe v16 (R20) / VirusScan v22.6.156 * Speccy Portable v1.32.740 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are the official links to the portable versions of Defraggler, Speccy, and Recuva? Given Avast's recent problems and investigations into their actions, there is no way many of us are going to use closed-source installers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entpackender Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 Hi there, my oldest Speccy Portable is from November 2010 - Version 1.7.0.205 I wanted to get the newest one today. So I downloaded the latest Version 1.33.0.79 the .exe file, unpacked it to the directory spsetup133 with the help of an installed 7-Zip and started the Speccy64.exe in that folder. That's the perfect portable Speccy. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Entpackender: Thanks for your suggestion, but I would still like to know if Avast / Piriform is planning to post a Speccy Portable v1.33 build (spsetup133.zip) on the official download page at https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy/builds. Unfortunately, your workaround isn't always practical if I'm troubleshooting in a user forum and would like someone with limited technical expertise to run Speccy Portable from a removable USB stick and publish a Speccy snapshot so I can see their system components. In some cases installing the standard Speccy app on the hard drive of a glitchy computer using the full .exe installer isn't always the best option. That being said, I followed your instructions to update my Speccy Portable executable Speccy64.exe to the latest version (NOTE: the version listed in the Portable interface shown below is v1.33.075, not v1.33.079). Unfortunately, the latest Speccy v1.33 still can't read the S.M.A.R.T. attributes of the Toshiba NVMe SSD in my 5-year-old Dell Inspiron 5584 (see ZloboMiR's 19-Feb-2020 topic No SSD NVM Info about this shortcoming in the previous Speccy v1.32). At first glance I also can't see any obvious difference in snapshots I created today with the previous Speccy Portable v1.32.740 (http://speccy.piriform.com/results/n6s3tVh6d7dKOtSemq3Kn23) and my "modified" Speccy Portable v1.33.075 (http://speccy.piriform.com/results/n5A0wewR6uSSbD5IOCvWhwC) so I'm not really certain at this point that the updates that Avast / Piriform just made to the Speccy hardware library in June 2024 would actually be detected by my "modified" Speccy Portable v1.33. I don't have a computer with a newer Intel CPU, NVIDIA graphics card, etc. for testing so at this point I don't know if you need all the updated .DLL files included with the standard (installed) build of Speccy v1.33 in order for it to detect the "latest and greatest" hardware components correctly. ----------- 64-bit Win 10 Pro v22H2 build 19045.4529 * Firefox v127.0.2 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.24050.7-1.1.24050.5 * Malwarebytes Premium v5.1.5.116-1.0.1252 * Speccy Portable v1.32.740 / v1.33.075 Dell Inspiron 15 5584, Intel i5-8265U CPU, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB Toshiba KBG40ZNS256G NVMe SSD, Intel UHD Graphics 620 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
