Hack Windows Experience Index Score

When you install a new application then some features of that app may be disabled if you have a very low score. 
Many of you would like to hack this to trick your System to allow you to use those features.
Today I will share that trick with you.

• Navigate to C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\DataStore.
• In the DataStore folder, you'll see many files named GraphicsMedia.Assessment, Mem.Assessment, Disk.Assessment, Formal.Assessment etc.
• Look for the file with name Formal.Assessment in the folder and open it with Notepad. If you multiple occurrences of this file then go for most recent one.
• Open the file.
• To change the Base Score look for <SystemScore> and change the value written between <SystemScore> and </SystemScore>.
• Just like that, change Processor, Memory, Graphics, Gaming Graphics, and primary Hard Disk score.
  
• Save the file after making your changes.
• If you'll save your file in the DataStore folder now then the permission will be denied.
• If the permission is denied then save the file in the desktop or other drive. Now, from there, move the file to C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\DataStore folder [replacing the original file].
• All done!!!!!
  
  
  
  
  
  Note: If you want to revert the changes to your original Computer Score then Re-run the assessment.

          Note: Only works upto Windows 8.1
