If you've ever lost a program's product key code or other essential documentation, you can probably appreciate a tool that helps you keep track of all your software. How about All My Software? It's a free application from Bolide that scans your Windows system for all installed software, including support and contact information, links, and even order date and number, if applicable, and saves them in a database you can export to Excel.

All My Software's installation wizard includes a scanning stage that displays files in the registry with the option to exclude them from the database, delete them, or scan them. We chose the default setup, and the All My Software interface opened when the setup wizard closed. This interface is a compact, businesslike dialog that can be dragged around the desktop but not resized. The program's preferences are limited to language, autosave, and database backup reminders. The icon-based toolbar includes some useful extras, such as an Excel export button and one to attempt to uninstall the selected software. The left-hand navigation panel toggles between a software list and a developer-based tree view, while the main view has the familiar look of a virtual form, with entry fields for software title, developer, links, price, and more; many already filled in. There's a field to enter or paste in the registration key for the selected program, which we recommend doing every time you install software, and a Notes section, too. You can also attach files to records, a useful feature. All My Software recommends backing up your personal database to an external drive or device, an online storage site, or network share--anywhere but the software's main folder. We agree, and we saved our records to a thumb drive.

All My Software is freeware that requires free registration, a fairly painless process. Some Vista and Windows 7 users may have trouble with the .chm-format Help file due to a known issue. Obviously a Help file that won't open is a major issue, but we had no trouble using All My Software. It makes it easy for you to centralize your critical software records, back them up, and keep them safe until you need them, which you always do.

Unimpressive
Fletch2015December 11, 2010
Pros
Shows some URLs and some support sites for software products. Perhaps useful for developers but not so useful for the rest of us.
Cons
Does not show registration keys. Perhaps useful for developers but not so useful for the rest of us.
Summary
Belarc Adviser offers the same data on programs for free.

Pros
does the job easily with URLs
Cons
does not identify by codes or key#
Summary
useful for storing info when you supply ID info
Great concept, much needed, but falls short and no apparent progress...

Pros
This software is good. The presentation is acceptable and there are a relatively good number of items you can track
Cons
This software is definitely not exceptional. The presentation isnt ancient, but is very dated. It admittedly is better than many other softwares I have found for this purpose. It's auto scan is annoying as too many system files end up being included in the results. I would have been happy to manually enter all of my software purchases, but after my tests I just felt there were too many shortcomings to continue using it. There are several necessary items the author didn't consider. For example, I have one title that I upgrade on a regular basis, and I would like to keep every version and its registration information within a single product listing, and in an organized fashion. I would also like to be able to list not only the email address used to purchase, but also additional email addresses so that if I change the registration, I will have a record of both addresses used. Some of my purchased software has lifetime upgrade licensea and I would like to be able to indicate such. And, how about the ability to add some of my own columns and personalize them... <p>I plan to keep looking. There has to be a better one out there...

Great idea... Needs some improvement
edugomezJanuary 24, 2007
Pros
The idea to have all organized together with links to Support and direct e-mail for each app is fantastic; the program detects all this info automatically. Then you can add your license key, and any other data you want.
Cons
It classifies each and every Windows Actualization as a stand-alone program. <p>You have a hard work with the full list at first. <p>Also, I can make backups in my hard disk, but I cannot make it on a removable media for the moment. AND I don't know how to do it because THE HELP FILE IS USELESS! Its Content is a single general description, and advise on "How to buy" it.
