Are there any good tools for listing your current programs, maybe exporting settings etc. Listing hidden settings and save locations would be great too.

I’m about 90% ready to switch to Linux full time, and I want to make sure that I’ve got everything. I’ve got a horrible feeling that I’m missing something, but I can’t think what it might be.

EDIT: Ironically, I forgot to mention my ADHD / memory issues. I could do with a tool like this because I forget about anything that I’m not currently using, or actively thinking about using soon >.<

    What I did when I switched was to create an image of my existing install with clonezilla then used it in a vm. This way I didn’t have to worry about a dual boot configuration.

    Been a while since I did this but it should still work

      That’s a great idea, thanks :)

      I’ve got a copy of Macrium Reflect that does the same thing, but mostly automatically, and I’m pretty sure that it runs on Linux too. I’m going to check now :)
