These score are not jus for benchmarking,but also usefull when you shopping for new software.If your pc's score didnt get the score that are require by the software (meaning your hardware not strong enough),you can manually tweak the score to archieve the requirement.
Here are the step:
Step 1
Disable ''User Acount Control (UAC) in the control panel.I believe most of you had done this during the first time you log in to window.
Step 2
click your start menu,type in ''wordpad'' in the search bar that sit beside the sleep button.
Step 3
after launched wordpad,click file> 'open' ,navigate to C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\Datastore, select ''show all document type'' and you will see the xml file.select the most recent date (the last time you refresh your score)'s files.

Step 4
After select the file,you will see alot of code,here is the place you can to change your code.From 1.0 - 5.9 is the normal marks.You may change to higher score but the max is 9.9.(Just for fun).I will change all to 5.9 in here.

Step 5
After change the marks,save the file.And take a look at the score again.It should become the marks you have changed just now.

*a refresh is recomended,but some of people says their score back to normal if they refresh.But for me,it has no problem.
