Getting software versions

(imported topic written by ebrudy91)

I am trying to get the names and versions of the software that are installed on my servers. This is what I’ve come up with so far.

selects whose (it as lowercase starts with “version” or “caption”) “* from win32_Product” of wmi

If I’m way off please let me know

Thanks

Well… you can do something like this:

(string value of property “caption” of it & " – " & string value of property “version” of it) of select objects “version, caption from win32_Product” of wmi

But this method uses the WMI and is pretty slow… Do you have the BigFix License and Inventory site? If so, the “Application Information – Windows” Analysis will retrieve this data for you.
