I would love to see this response as well

I am setting up a new Zabbix system to manage my small office, my friends office and a few servers. It would be extremely helpful to be able to view installed applications as this would to see what the last software installed was and if that affected performance.

Should be possible with Powershell

Hi

I would write a small Powershell script and read the output to Zabbix.

How to get a list of installed software:

Write the output to file, maybe after every boot or with Scheduled Tasks.

Create an item for the host: Zabbix Agent Key: vfs.file.contents[<file>].
