How do I check for 32 bit apps?
Before I try to upgrade to Catalina, I would like to see what apps, plug ins, etc. I have that might be 32 bit. Is there an app that will give me this info? I'm currently using Mojave.

Thanks so much. That gave me the info that I needed. I'm still using a copy of CS5 PS which works fine in Mojave, but will not work in Catalina as it has a lot of 32 bit plug ins, etc. I'm trying keep Adobe's hands out of my pockets!

Try this free app, https://www.stclairsoft.com/Go64/
Also click on the Apple top left of your screen, click on About This Mac.
Click on System Report.
In the left column click on the Software then Applications, and from the resulting table (it takes a while to populate)
scroll over to the righthand you should see a column 64bit, any apps that are not 64bit will be
registered as NO.
That's helpful thanks, but it is a very long list. Is there any way to download that list so I can search it? I tried highlighting so I could copy it to a spreadsheet, but System Preferences does allow copy. Any ideas please?
