TrakPC can be configured to look at individual PC registries to see what software, and version, is installed. By extracting software names that are displayed in your Control Panel in the Add/Remove Programs area automatically, you can determine which software is on which PC, whenever an audit is necessary. It is important to note that the TrakPC module does not examine files on disks to determine what specific software is installed. Instead, it uses registry scanning. In cases where there is software on a PC which needs to be tracked but is not listed within the registry, it is possible to include an entry in an .INI file on the PC which lists the software name and the appropriate file to look for. Then, if TrakPC finds this file, it can return the software name as one of the packages installed on the PC.
