Find out the current version and update of an installed application

Question

I have some requirement where I have to find out the current version and update details of an installed application (highlighted):

And I have this PowerShell snippet for modification:

$server="XXXXXXXXXX"



$ServiceInfo = Get-WmiObject win32_service -ComputerName $server -ExpandProperty Version | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "VSTTAgent"} 

if($ServiceInfo.State -eq "Running")

{

    $userAccount = $ServiceInfo.DisplayName.ToString()

    Write-Host ("VSTTAgent service is Running on $server and  $userAccount  ")                  

}

Answer 1

To get the product version, you can use the Get-Item cmdlet using the PathName property of your $ServiceInfo object:

$ServiceInfo.PathName.Trim('"') | Get-Item | select -expand VersionInfo | select ProductVersion
