Retrieving Win8.1 Hidden System Experience Rating

Starting with the Microsoft Vista system, Microsoft introduced a performance information and tooling feature for the system to detect system experience scores. This feature can be used for simple computer hardware. Performance reference, has continued Windows7, Windows8 system, but after the Win8.1 preview version and Win8.1 official version, this feature is directly hidden by default, no longer intuitively displayed to the user.

Why is it hidden?

Because the system experience scoring function is WinSAT, it is used for Vista, Win7, Win8 performance information and tool functions. After upgrading to Win8.1, the system experience score is no longer displayed in the system properties, but the WinSAT function still exists in the system, and supports the current system scores directly recorded in XML text.

How to retrieve the current system experience score information?

Method 1: Suitable for advanced users

First, win+X, select (as administrator) command character, Enter winsat -help to view the command line usage related to the Windows system evaluation tool:

Second, continue to enter winsat formal, start the Windows system evaluation tool

Three: Reference C: WindowsPerformanceWinSATDataStore path Directly search for XML text records. There are seven scoring records by default, namely CPU, Disk, DWA, Graphics3D, GraphicsMedia, Mem, Formal. Formal.xml is a summary of the system experience score.

MemoryScore5.2 corresponds to RAM

CpuScore5.2 corresponds to processor

GraphicsScore4 corresponds to graphics performance

Dx9SubScore4.2 corresponds to DX9 performance

GamingScore4.2 corresponds to game graphics performance

DiskScore5.9 corresponds to primary disk performance

Method 2: Suitable for ordinary users

Principle: Add PerfCenterCPL.dll application extension to Win8.1 system under the Windows directory and manually loaded. You can add a performance information and tool function to the system to visually display the performance scores of the various indicators of Win8.1 system.

Steps:

1. Download the PerfCenterCPL.dll application extension collection:

and copy all files of system32 and sysWOW64 to the Windows directory of Win8.1 system, support 32-bit System and 64-bit system.

2, copy the following, save as PerfCenter.reg, import the registry, add performance information and tool functions
