Finding if theres specific software in "add/remove programs"

[SeWeX]

So... I am making program that removes selected softwares. And for it I need AutoIt to know if there's specific software in the "add/remove programs" or "appwiz.cpl"

but it seems like AutoIt can't find the text in the list. AutoIt Window Info in doesn't show the text either

#RequireAdmin
del_pspp()
Func del_pspp()
MsgBox(0, 0, "Pspp", 1)
Run("C:\Windows\System32\control.exe appwiz.cpl")
WinWaitActive("[CLASS:CabinetWClass]")
Sleep(2000)

;~ find the program name "PSSP" from the list, if not, continue with next program
   If WinGetText("PSPP", "") Then
      Send("PSPP")
      Send("{ENTER}")
      WinWaitActive("[CLASS:#32770]")
      Send("!u")
      MsgBox(0,"", "Software Deleted",4)
   Else
      MsgBox(0,"Error", "Software not found", 5)
      Return
   EndIf
EndFunc

MsgBox(0,0,"Script Continues...")

That app is filled in by registry data:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

 

You can loop through those, and then not need to launch the application.
