I am trying the following search to find an installed application. The application does not register correctly in Windows so i can’t use regapp. The problem is that it appears that this search is not happening on about half the clients. About half the clients show the version installed and the other half show in the BigFix Console. Is there a reason the search would not take place on all the clients?

(values “DisplayVersion” of it) of keys whose (exists value “DisplayName” whose (it as string equals “Splunk” of it) of it) of key “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall” of registry

x64 vs x32 registry? You can try these variants of your query to check if that is the case:

… of native registry

… of x64 registry

… of x32 registry

Adding native registry resolved the issue.

Thanks
