Updated first post.

-removed NoRepair column

-added MSI column

-added 3 bypasses

Tested on 2 Machines -- XP Pro 32bit and Win7 Home Premium 64bit.

I did a side-by-side comparison between the add and remove dialogs on both machines.

It was an exact match on the Win7 machine.

On XP, all of what was on the dialog, showed up, plus a few.

I would like to hear your results --

"Show Updates" must not be checked when comparing from the Windows Dialog.

---

For those of you that wanted an updated -> InstalledSoftwareViewer.au3

Here it is:

InstalledSoftwareViewer_v1.0.1.au3

Well, I did some more research, that the user "Chris128" mentioned,

on the key SoftwareClassesInstallerProducts; In relation to listing

all software (in that key), and which involves converting the GUID

found in the uninstall key to match up the software items.

I came to the conclusion, that  the only benefit of doing it, would

be to display the individual programs for a software package.

For instance: Windows Live Essentials, which has about five or six

of those listed under it. ie: Movie Maker, Photo Gallery, etc.

After peeking at his code, he also list's other user's software under HKU.

In any case, I don't think I want to go to that extent, for several reasons.

And, I think it's unnecessary to list what is in a software package, when

the main title should be good enough. Just my opinion -- unless one of

you guys can think of something I have overlooked.

If not, then I think I'm done with it for now.
