Reinstalling Windows is a
good way to fix some problems with your computer. But before reinstall Windows,
you should have a list of installed programs, on your computer so you know what
you want to reinstall on the new system. To generate a list of installed programs on a Windows PC, we need:
1) Open a Command Prompt
as Administrator.
2) At the command prompt, type in wmic (Windows Management Instrumentation Command.)
3) Enter the
following command line at the wmic:root\cli
/output:C:\Programs.txt
product get name,version
4) The Programs.txt
file is created on the root of the C: drive.
