Hello,

Is it possible to list all installed software from local PC to a listbox?

I did a google search and found that the software is in the registry key HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Un install

How can I read all the data and display the "Display Name" and "Version"?

Once upon a time I thought I saw something on the forums about this but, I was unable to locate it.


Thanks and Happy Holidays!

Do you know howto use Registry.GetValue and Registry.GetKeyNames etc etc? with that you can just go through all the contents of that registry path. I advise to start regedit.exe and look for yourself before you start:P so you know wich keynames and valuenames you should get.
