Are you looking for a list of all EXE files under the Applications install path?

Something like that, but not whole path just want to list the final .exe

like the path is “C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe”

just want to list the AcroRd32.exe

Is it possible?

This will work if you have the path as a string:

name of file 
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe"

You might need to cast however your getting the path as a string first, like:

name of file (<rel expression> as string)

Thanks your answer!

If I use the method, I should already know the path.

I just know the application’s name like: Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) - Chinese Traditional

and to find the executive file name : Acrobat.exe

Or use the name:Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) - Chinese Traditional to find the Path first and then use your

method

I know that “names of processes” can list executing .exe.

I wonder if there are some relevence could list .exe of the name like" Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) - Chinese Traditional" in Add or Remove Programs.

Thanks for answer!

I found that “FileDescription” is not exactly same to “DisplayName”:

DisplayName is “Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) - Chinese Traditional”

But the "FileDescription"is just “Adobe Reader”

I can’t use the DisplayName to find the AcroRd32.exe.

Any suggestions?

This will give you a list of exe files for the programs, not sure how to make that useful for you though.
