If you ever need to do some reinstalling of Windows on your laptop but would like to backup the list of installed programs before formatting, the following will be useful.
- Start Command Prompt.
- Type wmic /output:"%userprofile%\Desktop\InstallList.txt" product get name,version on command prompt to run Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line tool.
This will generate a list of all installed programs and save it as a text file. Do note this may take some time depending on the number of installed programs you may have.
