It inspects the registry to determine what programs are installed. It will return programs installed for *all* users, not just the current user. `Get-ProgramInstallInfo` tries its best to get accurate data. The following properties either isn't stored consistently, is in strange formats, can't be parsed, etc. * The `ProductCode` property is set to `[Guid]::Empty` if the software doesn't have a product code. * The `User` property will only be set for software installed for specific users. For global software, the `User` property will be `[String]::Empty`. * The `InstallDate` property is set to `[DateTime]::MinValue` if the install date can't be determined. * The `Version` property is `$null` if the version can't be parsed .OUTPUTS Carbon.Computer.ProgramInstallInfo. .EXAMPLE Get-ProgramInstallInfo Demonstrates how to get a list of all the installed programs, similar to what the Programs and Features UI shows. .EXAMPLE Get-ProgramInstallInfo -Name 'Google Chrome' Demonstrates how to get a specific program. If the specific program isn't found, `$null` is returned. .EXAMPLE Get-ProgramInstallInfo -Name 'Microsoft*' Demonstrates how to use wildcards to search for multiple programs. #> [CmdletBinding()] [OutputType([Carbon.Computer.ProgramInstallInfo])] param( [string] # The name of a specific program to get.
