GetInstallPath
SystemTools
Description
Find any installed software in no time! Search the registry for installation information and get not only the path, but also the version, publisher, and uninstall command.
The end of "Where is that program installed?" Search the Windows installation database with smart name matching and find exactly what you are looking for - whether it is the exact name or just part of it!
Why This Tool Stands Out
- Smart Search - even with partial names
- Version & Publisher included
- Uninstall Command available
- Existence Check - is the software present?
Perfect for:
Software inventory, deployment scripts, system administrators, and troubleshooters. Indispensable for software detection, version checks, and automated installations.
Workflow support; time savings depend on the task
No browsing through Program Files, no manually checking the registry. A single API call finds installed software instantly - with all relevant details.
