Obtaining MSI productcodes via powershell

To obtain the productcode of an MSI installed application, you can search the Windows registry at the following locations:

• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

However, there is an easier way obtaining the productcodes of all installed applications through powershell by executing the following command:

get-wmiobject Win32_Product | sort name | Format-Table IdentifyingNumber, Name, Vendor, Version, LocalPackage -AutoSize
