Hi David,
Okay, I typed powershell into search & pressed enter on powershell.exe, but
I didn't get a blank / empty window. It said,
Administrator: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
Windows PowerShell
Copyright (C) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
PS C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0> ^V
I then pasted in the following & pressed enter:
Get-ItemProperty
HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* |
Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate |
Format-Table -AutoSize
This is the message I received:
The term '' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script
file,
or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was
included,
verify that the path is correct and try again.

+ <<<<
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (:String) [],
CommandNotFoundEx
ception
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
PS C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0>
So, what did I screw up?!
Take care.
Mike

Hello Michael,
Okay here's my last try;
Got this from google.
First, open PowerShell by clicking on the Start menu and typing
"powershell". Select the first option that comes up and you'll be greeted
with an empty
PowerShell prompt.
Copy and paste the following command, pressing Enter when you're done:
Get-ItemProperty
HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* |
Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate |
Format-Table -AutoSize
PowerShell will give you a list of all your programs, complete with the
version, name of the developer, and even the date you installed it.
results_in_powershell
You will probably want to export that to a file though, which is also easy
enough. You can just send the output using the > symbol and adding the path
to a new text file that you want to create. For example:
Get-ItemProperty
HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* |
Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate |
Format-Table -AutoSize >
C:\Users\Username\Documents\InstalledPrograms-PS.txt
Obviously, replace C:\Users\Username\Documents\InstalledPrograms-PS.txt with
the path and name you want to use for your file.
Let me know if this works.

Hi David,
This way produces the same list of installed programs, but with more details
of each installed program. Here's a couple of examples:
1st steps, my_software.txt:
Classic Shell
Software Updater
2nd steps, myprograms.txt:
Classic Shell IvoSoft
4.2.5
Software Updater SEIKO
EPSON CORPORATION 4.3.1
I truly appreciate all your efforts, & I'm very grateful for you taking your
time to get these steps for the list & myself. These steps will work just
fine for what I need them for, & I thank you very very much for all your
hard work! It has been a great learning curve.
Take care.
Mike

Hi David,
Whoa dude, worked great! 1 thing I did notice is it didn't get all the
installed programs that are listed in Programs and Features. 2 programs I
noticed it didn't have in the list were 7-Zip & Outlook Express, but in the
same token it shows many things that aren't in Programs and Features as
well. Thank you very very much!
Take care.

Hello Mike;
Not sure but this may work,
1, from the run dialog type cmd
2, when the cmd.exe opens,
Type in,
Wmic and press enter,
3, now type in,
/output:my_software.txt product get name
Press enter,
Now wait a few seconds or so, and the file will be created.
You then can find this txt file in
"C:\Users\owner"
Hope this works,

Hi David,
The steps you posted below were excellent, but can you tell me how can I use
the steps below to make a list for all installed programs in Programs &
Features in Windows 7 using the command prompt? I got it done, but it was a
long process. Also another way is to go to Speech History to get the last
50 items Jaws has spoken. Thanks again for all the excellent advice / help
you give us list members.

Hello, try the following;
Open command prompt with admin rights
So, type cmd from the start menu search box, or type cmd within the run
dialog.
Once the cmd.exe opens,
Type in,
Tasklist and press enter.
Now to generate a copy of the list,
Type in,
tasklist>tasklist.txt
note, make sure, you use, the grater sign between the tasklist and
tasklist.txt
now you can exit from cmd.exe.
once you do this, go to, desktop,
enter on owners name,
example,
Michael,
You will land into the owner's folder,
Now press the letter t=tasklist.txt
Hope this helps.
Davi
Take care.
Mike
