Installed apps not in inventory on Windows 7

  • 1.  Installed apps not in inventory on Windows 7

    Posted Jan 12, 2011 09:54 AM

    Running Windows 7 64-bit, Ghost 2.5.1 (11.5.1.2266).

    Installed Office and refreshed inventory.  The inventory listing for the machine does not show that Office 2010 is installed.

    Used scripting to poll Win32_Product manually, Office 2010 exists.

    In looking further, several installed applications that appear on a manual polling of Win32_Product don't appear in the software inventory for the machine, despite Ghost polling the exact same WMI Namespace.

    Any ideas on getting Ghost to show all the Installed Apps on a Windows 7 64-bit box?

    So going on 11 months old on this post and no one else is using inventory refresh to show installed apps on a machine? And no one has any idea why manually polling the Win32_Product shows installed apps but Ghost using the same WMI namespace does not show installed apps?
