Spiceworks reports that MS Project 2007 Professional is installed. We do not have a license for the professional version, so I uninstalled MS Project, downloaded and installed the Standard version, did a rescan of the machine and the inventory then showed Standard and Professional were installed. I deleted the machine form the inventory and let Spiceworks find it again, same result. I followed the How-to here: http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/420<\/a>, same results. I took a look at the log file and the only error was related to DNS, however I did not see anything in th elog that indicated Spiceworks was inventorying the software, only that it was populating hardware and other information.<\/p>\n
Thanks in advance for any other ideas.<\/p>","upvoteCount":1,"answerCount":3,"datePublished":"2010-01-29T09:38:46.000Z","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"steve62087928","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/steve62087928"},"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"
SW is pulling this from the registry in all likelihood. If you look at Add/Remove on the machine in question does it show just Standard?<\/p>\n What about in the Registry, I know this has been an issue with other things, like showing multiple versions of Firefox installed.<\/p>\n Spiceworks does inventory software as well as any other information it can pull.<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2010-01-29T10:00:04.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/software-scan-reports-wrong-version-installed/40745/2","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"martinpeverley","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/martinpeverley"}},"suggestedAnswer":[{"@type":"Answer","text":" Spiceworks reports that MS Project 2007 Professional is installed.
