Find Windows System info with Windows key + Pause/Break shortcut

If you need to find hardware details of your Windows PC, like any of the following -

  • Version including Service Pack used
  • Window Experience Index
  • Processor
  • RAM
  • System type (32-bit or 64-bit OS)
  • Computer name, domain & workgroup settings
  • Windows Product Id & whether Windows is activated

... there is a easy keyboard shortcut to reach for this info rather than going for it through Control Panel - Windows key + Pause/Break


I discovered this shortcut in this Scott Hanselman article that has other great tips for maintaining your PC
