What S.A.K. Utility is
S.A.K. Utility is a free, AGPL-3.0 portable Windows toolkit for PC technicians, IT professionals, and system administrators. Guided profile migration backs up and restores profiles with 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 to Chocolatey packages, supports bulk installs, offline bundles, direct downloads, and leftover scanning. The vulnerability scanner checks software against CISA KEV, NVD, GitHub Advisories, and OSV. Other workspaces flash ISO and IMG files, create Windows media from UUP payloads, inspect networks, and browse PST, OST, and MBOX archives without Outlook. The OpenAI-based assistant supports technician workflows. It runs as a standard user and requests elevation when needed.
