How to print the list of the installed programs in my computer?

[Juan I. Cahis]

Dear friends:

How to print the list of the installed programs in my computer?

The "Add or Remove Programs" Control Panel Applet shows you the list,
but how can you print it?

The idea is to have it, together with the original programs, in a safe
place in order to be prepared to reinstall all your programs in a new
computer, in the case that your actual one is stolen, damaged, or
lost.

On place to look and get (at least some of) the information you want is
Help & Support Center,
click on "Use Tools to view your computer information and diagnose problems"
(on the right, middle of the screen)
Under Tools, click "My Computer Information"
On the right, click "View a list of Microsoft software installed on this
computer"
It will tell you at least that part (including Product ID's) and you can
print this.

Another way of getting this information is described here:

Your English is fine. But if you have the programs (the
install disks) why do you need a list?

Because I don't know if I have *all* the program's install disks, and
I want to check if I have all of them.
