Can i view my original system state?

Is there a way to view a list of installed programs from a specific date or
to view the original system state when my PC was shipped? I am cleaning
things off manually because i dont want to use the Restore utility and dont
know about some programs like SQL server.

please send a response to bigalexe******.com

thx

Re: Can i view my original system state?

What are you trying to accomplish. System Restore doesn't uninstall
anything.

To restore to "Original System State." you should to a clean install. And
use the Disks that came with your computer.

Your e-mail address will now become an asset of the spammers. You should
always check back here for respojnses.
