Automated way to see which apps will break on Catalina 64-bit?

Question

Is there an automated way to see which of my apps, printer software etc will break when I upgrade to 64 bit macOS Catalina?

You can check (opened) software in Activity Monitor under CPU, there's an optional column "Kind" to show if it is 64 bit or not.

About this Mac&hellip;/System Report&hellip;/File/Save&hellip; writes a XML file with file extension .spx.Then, write something to grab the &ldquo;arch_kind&rdquo; values from it. 32-bit apps have &ldquo;arch_i32&rdquo; there (&ldquo;arch_i32_i64&rdquo; is fine, I think)
