You need to access the registry. Do a google search for vb windows registry

Hi Willakawill
Thanks for your information but i have already done that and i am able to get all the Installed softwares available on my pc but the thing is i need to get a particular software how can this be done

re: Getting specific software Name

My answer is the same. You can get all of the installed software and you can get the installation folder for any particular piece of software for which you have the correct name.
