Option to Sort Uninstall Menu By Date of Installation

[Irfan]

I am an avid fan of all of your great products. To be simple itself tentamounts to greatness, and I love it.

I wish to see a sort option in the Uninstall menu, so that I could sort the list either by name or by the date of installation.

Hope to see this in the coming versions.

Kudos,

Irfan

Welcome to Piriform Irfan.

 

CCleaner does list by name, which you can change if you want too.

 

Why would you want it listing by date? You either want to uninstall something or you don't. No thats been installed for years I may as well uninstall it.

You would actually want to sort by installation date, in cases where you installed a bundled software that upgradated and installed various other dependencies, and if one of the component starts interfering with other already installed softwares. In situations like this at times it becomes imperative to find out the various components that got upgraded / installed on a particular date, so that one can simply uninstall them and restore the functioning of the other softwares. I really got benefited this way through Glary Utility, which incidentally has this smart option to sort by installation date. Look at the attached snapshot and see if you can make out which installed software is related to what component on my machine.
