Any help would be appreciated!

HotFixID;

if (exists wmi) then ((string value of property "HotFixID" of it) of select objects "HotFixID from Win32_QuickFixEngineering where HotFixID != 'File 1'" of wmi) as string else ("N/A")

InstalledOn;

if (exists wmi) then ((string value of property "InstalledOn" of it) of select objects "InstalledOn from Win32_QuickFixEngineering where HotFixID != 'File 1'" of wmi) as string else ("N/A")

Keep in mind that some KB articles are not shown in Add or Remove Programs. Any update can be hidden from view if, for example, it does not have an uninstaller.

You’d be better off using the CBP and/or HotFix instance stores in the registry, in my opinion:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing\Packages
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Hotfix
