Information window in modal mode, or similar. - (Moved)

[ARPFre]

Good evening everyone,

I'm making a script where I fetch WMI information in CMD, where the command line in CMD is:

wmic product get name,InstallDate,version > C:\Public\Temp\InstallSoftware.txt

However, it takes a while for it to process the information and create the TXT file.

Is there a way to appear a "slash" window or another similar window, in MODAL locking until the end of the processing, and then "unlocking"?
This warning window should remain open until the end of the command.

For faster result you can scan both registry sections :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
On 64 bit Windows, remember to also check:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\

And/Or you could use a progress bar GUICtrlCreateProgress with style marquee...

And/Or you could use Win32_Product (WMI com object) instead of running an outside program (may not be faster, but more fun to script)

As you can see there is multiple ways to skin a cat

@NineHow to use registry keys to be faster?
Is it possible to generate a TXT list with this information? Similar to the TXT I attached?

InstallSoftware.txt

Yes, did you even look in regedit ?  Did you even try to write a script about it ? If you want me to help you in the future, you better make an effort when I give you a trail of a solution.  As I am getting a tad annoyed with your lack of autonomy.

I understand your irritation. I don't want you to write scripts for me to just copy.

I ask after trying several alternatives and failing.

I used my autonomy for wmic, which got good results. however with your suggestion to be faster I asked the question if it was possible to generate txt through Regedit.

I'm learning by myself and using google translator. And also with the tips and scripts that you have published. I don't just copy, I study which commands and which logic was used.

Even so, thank you for your availability and attention.

I've even tried using
PINFO
PowerShell

And the only one I got was the wmic
