The 'Tiger' 'Mac OS X Install DVD' installs 'System Profiler' version 4.1. Sometimes, one may have to reinstall an application via a 'MacOSXUpdCombo.' (or equivalent) file - to obtain a copy of the version earlier removed.

Re-installing an application - from a 'Mac OS X install' disc (CD / DVD), via 'Pacifist' or other means (such as via 'Terminal's command-line) may not install all necessary components associated with said application. It is very important to identify the specific version of MacOS X installed, when posting a problem / request. If 'System Profiler' was relocated from its original '/Applications/Utilities/' folder - the 'More Info.' button of the 'About This Mac' window, would still function correctly (that is, the button would still be enabled, and properly launch 'System Profiler'.).Ġ2.
