Checking for Software installed.

How will I know programmatically, software installed in the system? How to check whether the installed software is correct version? Is there any article related to this? Thanks, Stanly
Which software ? Your software or another one ? If it is your software, you can simply add a registry key in the windows registry (that's what a lot of application are doing). You can also store the version in the registry (and some other parameters like the install path).

There's really no way to do this reliably. An application can be installed using a fancy install program, or a simple batch file (i.e., create folder, copy files). Notifying Windows (via the registry) that an application is being installed is not a requirement.
