Allow users to quickly input PC specs

Question

Quite often other users will need to know what they use this computer hardware is (RAM, OS etc.) in order to help them. Rather than having to copy and paste information and every time, it could be attached to the account so when the user clicks a certain button it will automatically input the details into the post. Maybe as a quote block or other distinct formatting?

Answer 1

This feature is not available in the current Q&A platform.

The closest supported pattern is to have users collect their system information locally and paste it into posts when needed. On Windows, System Information (msinfo32) can be used to quickly gather detailed hardware and software specs:

1. Open the Run dialog (Windows logo key+R).
2. Type msinfo32 and press Enter to open System Information.
3. Review or copy the relevant details (for example, OS version, RAM, hardware components) and paste them into the question or answer.

System Information is designed specifically to provide the kind of hardware and configuration data that helpers often need.
