WinZip Version Report

(imported topic written by jcochran197791)

Could you assist in creating an analysis for versions of WinZip in our environment? Would something like this work?

nique values of ((if (exists value “DisplayVersion” of it AND exists value “DisplayName” of it) then (value “DisplayName” of it as string & " - " & value “DisplayVersion” of it as string) else (if (exists value “DisplayName” of it AND not exists value “DisplayVersion” of it) then (value “DisplayName” of it as string & " - <N/A>") else nothings)) of keys whose (value “DisplayName” of it as string as lowercase contains “winzip” AND value “DisplayName” of it as string as lowercase does not contain “update”) of key “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall” of registry)

I copied it from the Adobe Reader analysis but changed it to winzip?

Any advice would be SOOOO appreciated.

A: WinZip 11.1 - 11.1.7466

I tried it and it is working perfectly.

Thank you!

Is there way to determine which installs are evaluation or if they are using the same license key?

Hey jpeppers,

Different applications figure out their license schemes in different ways… I believe winzip has a specific authorization file in the winzip folder. I am sure you can find a way to inspect that with BigFix, but you probably need to research it a bit…
