UCheck / Re: False positives - Version installed is not correct

« on: November 09, 2023, 04:01:06 AM »

Hi dking02,

I install most of my programs to non-standard folders. The old versions are not installed. The second entries are, in fact, for the updated versions. The updated versions are installed in the same location as the original version. Nothing is installed in \Program Files. The programs are installed in the reported directories and have only been installed to these directories.

UCheck / False positives - Version installed is not correct

« on: November 07, 2023, 12:56:22 PM »

Hi,

I am a long time Sumo user and a new user to UCheck (Premium) 5.0.4.0.

One problem I have found is that the program doesn't find the actual version of an installed program. It thinks a previous version is installed. For example, UCheck reports that I have HWiNFO64 V7.40 installed with a new version, 7.64 available. However, I have version 7.64 installed. I have found this problem with a number of my programs.

Question, is UCheck using the version reported in the Programs and Features - Uninstall or change a program list as the installed version? If so, this is the problem. If a program has an update feature that updates the program for the user, it does not always update the version reported in the registry. The actual .exe version needs to be checked.

Also, I get false positives for Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird because of how they are listed in the Programs and Features - Uninstall or change a program list as shown in the attachment.

Thank You,
Tracy
