I have certain problems with windows 8.1 OS.
I was thinking repair the system but then seems I lose almost any program I have installed (I take photos of all the possible programs to be reinstalled). So I decide is not my way.
I have acronis images from some months ago. I think this option is better.
Then I need to know the list of program I will lose from installing after the acronis image.

I need to obtain the list ordered by date to a txt file, or a pdf file or html file or similar.
How can I do that ?
What is the best app for that ?
Best Regards

The Revo Uninstaller software (v2.0) can easily show you the date of applications being installed and even sort the list applications accordingly. It also can export this list in html and txt format.
The easy path is usually downhill...
