How can I enum the systems on a domain that have Chrome browser installed?

Recommended Posts

This is going to have to work on a mixed XP / Win 7 32 & 64 bit environment.

I first though of using FileExists to look for a file or folder unique to Chrome, but it appears Chrome gets installed under the Users/AppData/Local path of the installing user, and the installing user won't be known.

Then I thought RegEnumKey might work, since HKLM\Software\Google\Chrome and HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Google\Chrome are the locations of the registry entries, but I can't seem to get that to work across the domain, it only works on my system.

Acn anyone think of a way to make this work. Alternately anyone think of a better way, like is there a way to query Add/Remove Programs?

Any suggestions or other help would be greatly appreciated.

FireFox,

Typically the current user won't be the installing user. Will your suggestion get the path even if it's under another user's profile? I won't have time to test until Monday.

Hi,

Here you go :

$sChromeAppPath = @HomeDrive & @HomePath & "Local SettingsApplication DataGoogleChromeApplicationchrome.exe"

Br, FireFox.

This doesn't work on Windows XP or on my installation of Win 7, my home drive is set to my H: drive so my @HomeDrive and @HomePath will come out to "H:", and there's no software installs there.

It would be closer to use this: "@AppDataDir & "GoogleChromeApplicationchrome.exe"", but that only works for Chrome installs that are done using the installer that installs to a user's profile folders. My install is in "C:Program Files (x86)GoogleChromeApplication" because we use the stand alone version of the installer.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Typically the current user won't be the installing user.

Then you can search the application for every user.

This doesn't work on Windows XP or on my installation of Win 7, my home drive is set to my H: drive so my @HomeDrive and @HomePath will come out to "H:", and there's no software installs there.

Good to know.

But this works on my windows XP; @AppDataDir won't work because It targets "Application Data" and not "Local Settings" in the user folder.

Here's a script that the AIScriptomatic program came up with for checking for it using WMI. I modified it slightly so it only displays information about the Chrome installation. Change the computer name to the name of the computer you're wanting to query.

Localhost is the computer you're running it on, change it to the remote computer name without the "".

The lines that are commented out are commented out because I got errors on them when querying a remote machine, but works fine on the local system, try it both ways and see if it works for you.

Yeah, I found out that script only works if you used the standalone installer and not the malware version that Google normally uses to install the browser.

Thanks everybody for the suggestions, but none worked for me. I ended up manually remoting in and getting eye strain. On the up-side, the task is done except for a few systems I couldn't get to that were turned off. I didn't want to have to do this with this script, but is there a way to enumerate the subdirectories in a directory? Specifically, the user profile folders in C:Users? Ideally, all of the subdirectories would automatically populate an array.

Hi, everybody, I'm back. Although I didn't get my script running and performed the task manually, I would really like to understand why I am getting the errors I get. If I leave lines 22 - 25 active, I always get the :No pat found" messagebox. If I rem them out, I am getting "Line 27: Subscript used with non-Array variable." The more I look, the more eyestrain I get, but the "aha" moment is elusive. Thanks in advance for any insight you can give me.

You're forgetting the "" before the computer names.

You're also forgetting the computer name, and the user name, when you're searching the folder for the file.

Thanks, BrewManNH, I think I'm taking baby steps in the right direction. I've gotten rid of the errors, but when I search a known Chrome system (my own), I can see the array enumerating the subdirectories in the Users folder using _ArrayDisplay, but when I continue, I get no response from the script, rather than the expected msgbox telling me that "Chrome resides here."

Try this, as I said previously, you were missing the computer name to search in, and some of the other things needed to look in the right place on the right computers.

BrewManNH,

I'm still getting no message box when I run the script on a known Chrome system. I redid the computer list so that it had 3 known Chrome systems and when I run the script selecting all three, it runs fof about 10 seconds, so I think the script is probably going through the computers looking for the chrome.exe file, but perhaps there's a problem in the following lines:

For $InnerLoop = 1 To $FileList[0]
        If FileExists("" & $aItems[$OuterLoop] & "C$" & $FileListItem & "" & $TargetFolder  & $TargetItem & "AppDataLocalGoogleChromeApplicationchrome.exe") Then
            MsgBox(0, $TargetFolder & "" & $TargetItem & "AppDataLocalGoogleChromeApplication", "A file named  chrome.exe resides here.")
        EndIf
    Next

Meds.  They're not just for breakfast anymore. :'(

Which version of Chrome do they have installed, the standalone install version which puts the files in Program Folders, or the shitty version which puts it in AppData? If you go to the target folder using the same information in the FileExists function, can you find the exe?

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I have the shitty AppData version. Otherwise, I wouldn't have this problem. It's the loop within a loop that's getting me. If I replace the variables with a simple path, the FileExists works fine. I think I'm just screwing my usage of the variables. I think I need some Ginko.
