Find computers that have a certain way of folders in C:\.

Please, I would ask for help for the following issue.
I have a software that is used on multiple computers.

The installation process of this software is as follows:
1. Installs the "vcredist".
2. Copy to folder with all applications, into the C:\.

In Regedit, there in his path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - SOFTWARE - "Manufacturer Name".
And in C:\, there is the folder path: C:\"Manufacturer Name".

I just need to know which are the computers of my network that have this path of folders in C:\, or the record of this folder in Regedit.

you can create custom software inventories that look for either the registry, a file, or a directoy.  Your choice

go to inventory - software and from the drop down choose new.

next to the custom rules is a question mark, click on it and create new software item.  for reports go under hardware and at the bottom will be the custom items you create for report purpose or just look under each computers custom inventory files tab

  • Got it! Many thanks for the help! - ftdcruz 10 years ago
    • for reports for this type of custom software item (file exits, directory exists, or registry key exists) I usually set a filter on the report that this custom entry "is not null" and it will show only the machines that are positive - SMal.tmcc 10 years ago
