This was a simple exercise - but the functionality is lost in CCleaner V7. No notification in the help section. Is there a workaround?
Windows Settings > Apps > Installed apps gives a list of the apps that are installed on your machine. But I’m assuming that you want a textfile.
You can find various methods online to output installed app information to a text file.
If you have Windows 10 you can use the Command Prompt ‘wmic’ commands
However with Windows11 you have to use Powershell ‘Get-CimInstance’ commands.
That’s because ‘wmic’ which is depricated (withdrawn) and is no longer included in Win11 as standard.
(You can add ‘wmic’ to Win11 yourself, but as it will be fully withdrawn if future that’s only a stop-gap).
Alternatively you could put CCleaner v6.39 back on your machine:
How to Roll Back from v7 to v6.39
Follow ALL of the instructions, particularly about turning off the Automatic Updating and deleting ‘CCupdate.exe’, if you do not follow the instructions then your newly rolled back CCleaner will just update to CCleaner7 again.
Thanks for your reply. I tried what you suggested BEFORE I read your post - a pity. Maybe CCleaner will see fit to bring back this feature. Thanks
