A command-line system information utility for Windows

WinFetch is a command-line system information utility written in PowerShell 6+ for Windows. WinFetch displays information about your operating system, software and hardware in an way similar to Neofetch and Screenfetch.

WinFetch curently supports Windows 10; Windows 7 and Windows 8 have not yet been tested. It is highly recommended to use WinFetch with PowerShell 6+; errors may appear if any other version is used.

While WinFetch does work in the majority of cases, things may break occasionally. Please report all such bugs here.

Features

Why you should use WinFetch:

1. You don't have any other choices.
2. WinFetch is tiny. The whole thing is ~11KB and 320 lines of pure PowerShell, counting comments. Compare that to Neofetch, which is about 280KB and 7,500 lines of code.
3. No need for the WSL, Cygwin, or MSYS2. While you need to install the WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) to run Neofetch, all you need to use WinFetch is PowerShell 6 (or later), which you probably already have installed.

Installation

Install WinFetch with Scoop:

• Make sure that you have the extras bucket installed:

  $ scoop bucket list
  main
  java
  ...
  extras
  

• Install the winfetch package:

  $ scoop install winfetch
  

  You should output like this:

  Installing 'winfetch' (1.0.0) [64bit]
  Loading v1.0.0 from cache
  Checking hash of v1.0.0 ... ok.
  Extracting dl.7z ... done.
  Linking ~\scoop\apps\winfetch\current => ~\scoop\apps\winfetch\1.0.0
  Creating shim for 'winfetch'.
  'winfetch' (1.0.0) was installed successfully!
  

Usage

For basic usage, just run winfetch:

$ winfetch

                    ....,,:;+ccllll   billg@MSDOS4

DISCLAIMER: the true output of Winfetch looks nothing like the above.

Configuration

As of version v1.0.0, WinFetch supports custom configuration. Configuration is stored at $env:XDG_CONFIG_HOME/winfetch/config (or ~/.config/winfetch/config).

To generate a default configuration that you can build on, just run:

winfetch -genconf

The default configuration looks like this:

# ===== WINFETCH CONFIGURATION =====

# Add a '#' to any of the lines in 
# this file to enable their output.

# $show_os                  = $false
# $show_computer            = $false
# $show_uptime              = $false
# $show_cpu                 = $false
# $show_gpu                 = $false
# $show_memory              = $false
# $show_disk                = $false
# $show_pkgs                = $false

$show_pwsh                = $false
$show_pkgmngr             = $false

To disable an information field, just remove the # from that line:

$show_os = $false			# DISABLED
# $show_os = $false			# ENABLED!
