How do I list installed MSI from the command line? [closed]

Answer 1

You may use PowerShell and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). Here is a one liner:

Get-WmiObject -Class win32_product

Here is help for the Get-WmiObject cmdlet:

Here is a sample where we select the first installed program and format it as a table:

PS C:\Users\knut> Get-WmiObject -Class win32_product |
>> select -First 1 | ft Name, Version, Vendor -AutoSize
>>

Name             Version  Vendor
----             -------  ------
