That's a system key that MSI installs will just update. Without knowing exactly
what that snmpwalk thing is doing, I'd guess that it may be ignoring the
MSI-based installs in ...\Uninstall\{guid}. This might be deliberate because
you can enumerate the MSI-based products with MsiEnumProducts(), so why trawl
the registry? If you're on a 64-bit system, it might walk only one of the
Uninstall nodes. Maybe it only enumerates the per-user Uninstall key.
There might be a trick, but I've never seen any of the registry trawlers report
the right information. There is no proper API to report the non-MSI ones.

After some playing with the registry I found that
applications that create registry entries here show up in the
hrSWInstalled output
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
My installer doesn't create that key. I don't know whether it should or not...

Subject: [WiX-users] Installed software listed in SNMP 'hrSWInstalled'
applications
I've got some MSI software packages created with WiX that I install on Windows
7 systems with group policy.
I'm using the linux 'snmpwalk' app to query each Windows PC to list the
'hrSWInstalled' applications. I'm seeing some applications listed in the output
(mostly MS applications, but some third party as well), but none of the
applications I've installed with my installers.
Does anyone know what the trick is to get installed applications to show up in
the SNMP output? this may have nothing to do with WiX, but I just have no idea.
thanks!
