how to see which programs I recently installed

[bigdan]

Sometimes in a day I'll install multiple programs, whose names I forget.

How can I tell which programs I recently installed? In XP it was easy, they'd just go to the end of the list of programs. But in Win 7 they're all alphabetical.

You can look at reliability history to see when programs were installed. Think that might be your best bet.

Go to Control Panel, then "Uninstall a Program". The list of software already installed should come up, just sort the list by date installed. Check the image below.
