List All Installed Applications on Mac Using Terminal Command
Whether you’re getting ready to set up a new computer or need to format an old one, it’s helpful to have a quick look at everything you’ve installed so you can easily reinstall them later. OS X Daily shows you how to do this using a terminal command.
Open Terminal (Applications> Utilities) and enter:
sudo find / -iname * .app
This will display all the applications that you have on your computer. From there, you can copy and paste the results into a text file to make it easier to restart. Of course, you can always just create your own bulk app installer .
