How to search my workstations for installed software

I would like to do a search on my network to see which workstations have .NET 4 installed. I have a software rollout coming that needs this version

Are you comfortable with power shell?

c:\ > Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Select-Object -Property Name

Use Spiceworks inventory; check the software report; you will see it over there

To get the same thing on a remote computer try this:

PS C:\> Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product -ComputerName computer1,computer2 | Select-Object -Property Name

This will list all the apps installed on computer1 and computer2.

Thanks Ricardo537. I think that did the trick.

John3504 - Thanks for the Power Shell script. I am working on becoming proficient with PS but still learning. I am also glad that I understood what you wrote. Maybe I am learning soemthing.
