An information processing apparatus includes an extraction unit, an acquisition unit, and a presentation unit. The extraction unit extracts pieces of characteristic information of an initialization target program to be installed and initialized. The acquisition unit acquires at least one set value for initializing the initialization target program from at least one different program that has been installed. The acquisition unit acquires the set value in an ascending order of priorities assigned to the multiple different programs in accordance with a degree of matching in the pieces of characteristic information extracted by the extraction unit. The presentation unit presents the set value acquired by the acquisition unit.
