Enumerate Uninstall Registry Key To Get Displayname & Displayversionvalue

Sep 17, 2010

I am trying to enumerate the

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall

registry key and check the displayname & displayversion registry value for all the sub keys under the uninstall key then compare the displayname & displayversion value with a if statement.

For example if one of the the displayname = "Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX" & displayversion = "10.1.82.76" then textbox.text = "Your adobe flash is up to date"

This is the code I been using to check a specific registry value to see if quicktime 7.67.75.0 is installed i figured it would be best to enumerate the subkeys and check the displayname & displayversion because im checking like 6 programs to see if the version is current.

Dim quicktime As String
quicktime = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue _
("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall{EB900AF8-CC61-4E15-871B-98D1EA3E8025}", "DisplayVersion", Nothing)

[Code].....

Reading From Registry's Uninstall Section?

Apr 5, 2007

I'm trying to read keys in the HKLM Uninstall section in my attempt to do a software inventory. I tried the WMI, it works but it doesn't show everything. I decided to just read each of the sub keys in the Uninstall section, but it doesn't show everything.

The code works, but it's just not showing some items.

Dim UninstallKey, SubKey As RegistryKey

UninstallKey = RegistryKey.OpenRemoteBaseKey(RegistryHive.LocalMachine, "\" &

Creating And Deleting Registry Value On Install And Uninstall?

Dec 20, 2006

I have program that on first run will run after installed will setup a server connection. The next times the program is run it will not execute this code to setup the server as it was done in the first run.

I can't use clickOnce IsFirstRun as the customer doesn't want that used for installation.I am using MSI to create the setup. I right click setup / view / Registry. I create a key value, example "HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareReality", "App", "Installed"I set the property AlwaysCreate = false, and DeleteAtUninstall = true.

My big question I don't want to create the key value when the application is first installed. Only delete it when uninstalled.My code for checking for the key value:

Code:If (My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareReality", "App", Nothing) <> "Installed") Then 'The program is running for the first time so create key value My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareRealitySolutions", "CodeRed", "Installed") 'Setup server for the fist time Else 'The key exists so go no need to setup the server'Do something else End If

The key value deletes on the uninstalled - which is what i want it to do. However, it always creates the key value when installed. i don't want it to do this. It should only create the key value in the code.Can any tell me, when setting up the registry in the setup project, is there a way to stop it from creating the key value when the program is installed.

Can Uninstall Functionality Be Modified To Catch Other Instances Of Application / Also Uninstall Them?

Jun 23, 2011

Have a VB.net application that installs initially from CD and then when the user gets into the internet the application updates. In order to better support problems with this application is has been suggested in the past to uninstall it and do a fresh re-install. However, in investigation it was determined that the uninstall does not consider all installed objects and does not uninstall the CD install.Can the uninstall functionality be modified to catch the other instances of this application and also uninstall them?

Getting The ServiceName And DisplayName From In The Service

Sep 21, 2010

I have installed the same service multiple times with different ServiceNames and DisplayNames. OnStart I want to parse the ServiceName and/or the DisplayName and use that to set a configuration for the specific service iteration. The point of this is to be able to have many services using the same code in the same directory, but connecting to different databases. Then I update one exe, one place and it gets all services up to date. Problem is, I can't find a way to get these details out of the system.

DisplayName DataAnnotations Not Working In WinForms 3.5 DataGridView?

Sep 7, 2011

I've used DataAnnotations attribute DisplayName successfully using MVC model binding, and even with WPF/Silverlight model binding and of course it works just fine, but now I'm on a project that I'm forced to use VB.NET 3.5 WinForms.

I have a Linq2Sql model and I created a partial class for one of my classes and included a MetadataType attribute to point to a metadata class. I added a DisplayName attribute to a property in the metadata class. I then bind my datagridview with an IQueryable(Of mydatatype), but the column name in the grid is the Property's name and not the DisplayName.

Am I missing something? Is there something else I need to do to get the datagridview to use the DisplayName?

In my Model class:

Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
<MetadataType(GetType(vwREVIEW_ECRMetadata))> _

.net - Enumerate An Object?

Here is the class:

Public Class ItemColl
Public TBPid, PAid As Integer
Public Sub New(ByVal _TBPid As Integer, ByVal _PAid As Integer)

I know I can override ToString(), but It would take a lot of time to change existing code with ".ToString()".

Enumerate The Classes From Interface

I think my problem is easy to solve. I developed an interface called "Animal". My programmers created classes for "Dog", "Cat", and "Horse" Later I want to let the user create an animal in a Windows form. How can I get my annimals to appear in the combo for selecting one of them? Each animal has it's own DLL. If tomorrow a new animal is developed, the combo should present the new value.

Does Microsoft have some code posted on how they show the properties page of a sql ce database?

Enumerate The Localized Alphabet In C#?

Apr 15, 2011

Quickest way to enumerate the alphabet in C#

Because I need to get all the characters of the alphabet OF AN ARBITRARY (variable) LANGUAGE, and that in the correct ordering sequence.

How can I do that without knowing the alphabet of every possible culture/language? System.Gobalization.Cultureinfo for example has information on date format, and a sorting method, and codepage info. But not info on the alphabet itselfs. Forthermore 'A' to 'Z' ordering iterating won't do, because German for example has characters such as ÄÖÜ, which are after 'Z' in the codepage numbering, but follow after aou when sorting.

Can I somehow use the codepages to get all the characters, and sort them somehow ? By 'all the characters' I mean all letters, including numbers, but not punctuation marks. And possibly only upper XOR lowercase.

Redim Boolean Array Vs Enumerate And Set?

Jul 23, 2010

In a case where you would like to reset an array of boolean values what is faster, rediming the array or enumerating and resetting the values? I have run some tests and they seem to suggest that a redim is a lot faster but I am not convinced that it isnt a result of how I'm running the tests.

My tests seem to suggest that redim is nearly twice as fast.So could anyone care to comment on which is faster and why? Also would you expect the same result across different languages?

Use The Netapi32.dll To Enumerate All The Process On A Remote Server

Feb 2, 2010

I am using vb.net and trying to use the netapi32.dll to enumerate all the process on a remote server. I have used NeServerEnum initially to allocate all of the available servers but have yet to get the NetFileEnum to work correctly. I have used 'Nothing' for the server name and it won't recognize the process on the local machine. If I try to select a server it returns '1113'. This code from what I have found means either 'the file is already open' which means little to me or ERROR_NO_UNICODE_TRANSLATION, just from what research I have collected on the number. The following is my code.

#Region
"Imports"
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Uninstall Program Using .NET?

Jan 25, 2012

I'm looking for any references on the best way to perform an unattended uninstall of a product using VB.NET. The product was installed using Windows Installer and the product name is Dell Kace Agent. I would like to perform the uninstall within the VB.NET code.Here's a VBScript that uninstalls a product using WMIC. This could be converted to VB.NET fairly easily, but is there a better way to perform a uninstall within VB.NET code than querying WMIC? I would rather not use WMIC to perform the uninstall maybe get the uninstall string from the registry?

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\" _
