Is it possible with Powershell to query the list of installed programs on a PC and list the last used date and time.
I found the script below but it does not list the "last used date and time" and in addition I cannot find the Windows registry key that will provide the info.
Any advise ?
Here is the script found in the web
$a = New-Object -comobject Excel.Application
$a.visible = $True
$b = $a.Workbooks.Add()
$c = $b.Worksheets.Item(1)
$c.Cells.Item(1,1) = “Name”
$c.Cells.Item(1,2) = “Version”
$c.Cells.Item(1,3) = “Publisher”
$c.Cells.Item(1,4) = “InstalledOn”
$c.Cells.Item(1,5) = “HelpLink”
$c.Cells.Item(1,6) = “UninstallString”
$d = $c.UsedRange
$d.Interior.ColorIndex = 19
$d.Font.ColorIndex = 11
$d.Font.Bold = $True
$intRow = 2
$Keys = Get-ChildItem HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
$Items = $keys |foreach-object {Get-ItemProperty $_.PsPath}
foreach ($item in $items)
{
$c.Cells.Item($intRow,1) = $item.Displayname
$c.Cells.Item($intRow,2) = $item.DisplayVersion
$c.Cells.Item($intRow,3) = $item.Publisher
$c.Cells.Item($intRow,4) = $item.InstallDate
$c.Cells.Item($intRow,5) = $item.HelpLink
$c.Cells.Item($intRow,6) = $item.UninstallString
$intRow = $intRow + 1
}
$d.EntireColumn.AutoFit()
Thanks
