I use System Info for Windows (SIW)   http://www.gtopala.com/
Just this week, I switched away from belarc.

Subject: [BBLISA] List of installed apps in Windows?

Is there a utility which can query a Windows machine (NT 4.0, 2000, XP) and
produce a list of installed applications?   Not all programs register with
Add/Remove programs.   Some simply end up in Start > Programs.

The idea, as well, is to find a utility (even within Windows itself) to
produce such a complete list, but that does not actually get installed on
the machine.

Belarc Advisor is the only other utility that comes to mind, but it gets
installed.

There is a Windows registry key to list programs that have been installed
and can be uninstalled, but again, not all programs properly register
themselves there.

Thanks for any leads.

Scott
