CPU Vulnerability Assessment and Fix Tool will check if any Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities exist on your machine.

As soon as you open it begins scanning for signs of the vulnerability (chances are you have been affected). Upon completion, CPU Vulnerability Assessment and Fix Tool will present you with a display notifying you that you are either vulnerable or not. It can provide you with details about how to secure your machine like info on patches that are available for download. It does not fix or patch anything and should be considered a vulnerability check tool only.
