# **choco-package-list-backup** solves your Chocolatey migration and package re-installation problems!

## **choco-package-list-backup (CPLB)** is a script I wrote that will backup the list of your currently installed Chocolatey packages and save them to a PACKAGES.CONFIG file. You can then use that PACKAGES.CONFIG file to re-install all your packages on another computer or even the same computer later if it crashes. "How can I re-install on the same computer if it crashed and I lost the PACKAGES.CONFIG file?" Thanks for asking! **CPLB** backs up your package list locally AND to multiple cloud services! But wait, there's more! **CPBL** also saves your pinned package info. But wait, there's even more! **CPBL** also saves a list of ALL your programs even if they weren't installed by Chocolatey. Pretty darn cool huh?
