What it is
S.A.K. Utility is a portable Windows repair toolkit for PC technicians, IT professionals, and system administrators. Its profile migration workspace guides backup and restore with smart filtering, AES-256 encryption, NTFS permissions, screenshot settings, and BitLocker key capture. Diagnostics check SMART disk health, run CPU, disk, and memory tests, monitor thermals, and export HTML, JSON, or CSV reports. Application Management matches installed software with Chocolatey packages, supports bulk installs and offline bundles, downloads installers, and scans for leftovers during removal. The vulnerability scanner checks software against CISA KEV, NVD, GitHub Advisories, and OSV. Other workspaces flash ISO and IMG files, create Windows media, provide network tools, and browse PST, OST, and MBOX archives without Outlook. An OpenAI assistant supports technician workflows. The free AGPL-3.0 utility runs from a Windows x64 ZIP and requests UAC elevation only when needed.
