InSpectre is a fast way to check if your machine is susceptible to the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities. Video tutorial available.

It is portable and does not require an Internet connection to function. What InSpectre does is check for any Spectre and Meltdown patches on your system and then provides you with the potential impact on performance. Additionally, it will allow admins the option to disable the respective protections if needed - keep in mind, using this to enable or disable those protections will modify the Registry keys.

Within the main window, InSpectre provides you with detailed data regarding the checks that it made and also provides you with a decent amount of general vulnerability information about each of the vulnerabilities. You are given information that pertains specifically to whether your OS or hardware need updating to protect against attacks that may attempt to exploit the weaknesses that Spectre or Meltdown pose. The impact rating is unique among some of the other similar tools but knowing if it is an accurate assessment is yet to be seen. But still a neat function for performance concerned users.

This utility (as are all apps featured on MajorGeeks) is provided to you exactly as the author intended it to be with no additions or changes.



Version History for InSpectre:
Intel has finished designing microcode update patches for its processors. On April 2nd, 2018, they announced that processors that have not yet been patched will never be patched. Their full statement is available in this PDF document. In that document, Intel specifies which of their many processors do have patches and which of their more recent processors will never receive updated firmware. Now that the industry has this information, this 8th release of InSpectre incorporates that list of CPUIDs and displays whether microcode firmware updates exist for the system's Intel CPU.

The patches are applicable to specific CPU models only, which are identified by each chip's “CPUID.” For this reason, InSpectre now prominently displays the system's processor CPUID at the top of its system summary.

Please check this page on Microsoft's website to see whether a microcode patch for your CPU, determined by its CPUID, is available at any time: KB4090007: Intel microcode updates

You can also use your favorite Internet search engine to search for the string “KB4090007” which should always take to that page and to its related Microsoft Update Catalog page to obtain the specific Windows update.
