In this article we will show you some ways to get a complete list of your installed programs in Windows.
The average user of a system of Windows will usually install several preletterτα στο υπολογιστή του, με κάποια από αυτά να χρησιμοποιούνται σε καθημερινή βάση και μερικά άλλα μόνο περιστασιακά. Όταν, για οποιοδήποτε λόγο, θελήσετε να κάνετε επανεγκατάσταση του συστήματός σας, μπορεί να σας προκαλέσει πονοκέφαλο η επανεγκατάσταση όλων των προγραμμάτων, ακόμα και αυτών που χρησιμοποιούνται περιστασιακά. Έτσι, αν έχετε σκεφτεί ποτέ την επανεγκατάσταση των Windows σας, τότε θα διευκόλυνε τα πράγματα αν έχετε πρώτα στα χέρια σας μια λίστα με όλο το εγκατεστημένο λογισμικό που υπάρχει στο σύστημά σας.
There are many ways to get such a list. With or without third party software. Simply, choose the method that is most comfortable for you, from the ones listed below.
Using the Command Prompt
The first and easiest way to get a list of all the software installed on your system is by using the command prompt. To do this, press "Win + R" at the same time, type "cmd" in the command prompt, and then press Enter.
The command-line window opens. Here, copy and paste the following command and press the Enter key. Do not forget to change the path the file will be saved to fit your needs.
wmic /output:D:\Lista_egkatestimenou_logismikou.txt product get name, version
Once you press the Enter button, Windows will scan your system and save the list in the txt format, ie a text file. You can find that file in the position you provided above (for us at the beginning of disk D).
If you do a help search on the corresponding command with wmic product get /? you will see the possibilities presentations that you have. Your results can contain for each installed software a description, installation date, installation location, etc. The only issue we have seen is that the data in the list is not arranged alphabetically.
Using PowerShell
If you use PowerShell, then you can also get a list of all your installed programs from it. To do this, press "Win + R" at the same time, type "powershell" in the run window, and then press Enter.
Now, in the Powershell window opened, type the following command and press the Enter key. Do not forget to change the path of the file, as in the previous example.
Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Select-Object -Property Name > D:\Lista_egkatestimenou_logismikou.txt
As you can see from the above command, you are still using WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) to get the list. If you have not seen all the software installed on your system, then try the following command. Again, customize the path of the file as needed.
Get-ItemProperty HKLM: \ Software \ Wow6432Node \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Uninstall \ * | Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate | Format-Table –AutoSize > D:\Lista_egkatestimenou_logismikou.txt
Using third party programs
If you don't like windows that have black background in white letters (!!!) and you want something in a better graphical environment, then you can use third-party programs. The job you want can be done just fine by the familiar auxiliary CCleaner program or GeekUninstaller or Belarc Advisor.
And we are sure they are not the only ones out there. Surely you will find much more, we just mention three indicative ones.
