PowerShell script for CPU info, incl. CPUID and μcode version
With all this mess with the newfound Spectre and Meltdown hardware-based vulnerabilities, users look for solutions from both Microsoft and CPU vendors.
The microcode updates, posted almost daily, are released based on CPUID.
The CPUID signature and microcode revision cannot be easily found by the average user.
So, I created a little PowerShell script to get basic CPU information, including the CPUID signature and the system's current microcode revision.
Download the updated (v2.6) CPU-info.ps1 file and save it on your Desktop (don't forget to unblock it!).
Open PowerShell as Administrator and run the following commands:
Code:cd ~\Desktop Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force .\CPU-info.ps1
You will get an output similar to that.
Feel free to use and make changes to the script, to suit your needs.
I hope that helps somebody.
Version 2.6 (26-Jan-2022)
