Check Solidworks is installed

[mahendra dubey]

Hi there I have c# application that runs on both 32bit and 64 bit machine. In my app, I want to check whether solidworks is installed on computer or not. Can we check it ,by reading registry keys(for both 32 bit and 64 bit.).Please tell me if the other ways also.

Thanks,
Mahendra

Ya, if you know where solidwork stores its information inthe registry then you can definately

I would probably check to find the path of the application instead.
If someone uninstalls the application, but chooses to keep their settings then the registry will still have the information even though the program is gone.
