Hanki Tools documentation
How to install and use Hanki Tools, the source-available Windows 11 toolkit, free for noncommercial use: Fix my PC, Tune my PC, Recovery, privacy and known limits.
Hanki Tools is a Windows 11 app for understanding your PC, investigating problems and tuning performance. It reads Windows' own evidence, explains results in plain language and changes nothing until you approve a change. Supported changes are recorded so you can undo them.
Two ways in
The app has two areas that share one Recovery and one History.
| Fix my PC | Tune my PC | |
|---|---|---|
| Starts from | Something is broken or unhealthy. | The PC works, but could be faster, smoother or quieter. |
| You get | One read-only scan, findings in plain language and a next step for each. | A plan for gaming, creative work or low power: each change before and after, plus the steps only you can take. |
| Tools | Diagnose, Maintain, Shield, Connect, Recovery | Gaming, GPU, CPU, Memory, Storage, Performance Lab |
| Recorded in | History → System actions | History → Performance sessions |
What makes Hanki different
- See before you change. Scans and checks are read-only. Every supported change shows a review first and only runs after you approve it.
- A way back. Supported setting changes are saved in Recovery before they happen, and removals keep a Recycle Bin or
.regbackup where possible. - No placebo tweaks. Hanki won't disable Defender, change timers or boot settings, switch off services in bulk or purge memory. "No change needed" is a valid answer.
- Local by default. No app analytics, crash uploads, background updater or automatic report upload. Network features run only when you start them.
- Honest limits. A finding is a lead to investigate, not a guaranteed diagnosis, and a passing check does not prove a PC is healthy.
