I don't know what the basis of that might be, but Nirsoft has been
around for ages and have proven themselves to be completely
trustworthy.

Based on that, I went back and clicked the "Download 64-bit
version" button, but Chrome popped "nircmd-x64.zip appears
malicious".

I don't know who that is coming from. Avast, maybe?

I think I'll take Paul's suggestion and go back and aim
PowerStrip at an installed Radeon driver.

*shrug* Suit yourself. I don't get the whole "scared to download"
thing. You can download malicious files all day long and not have a
problem until you execute one or more of them. In this case, you could
simply download, scan with your favorite scanner(s), upload to
virustotal, whatever. I see absolutely NO reason to be scared to
download something, especially something from a site like Nirsoft.

Sorry for the rant, but I just went through a similar scenario with
one of my clients. You give them the tools, you give them the
knowledge, and still they freeze.
