    Hi,

    I seem to be unable to find which computers have IE9 installed. I have no problems detecting other software, but IE is not available in Programs and features.

    The problem is because some computers came with IE9 preinstalled in factory and some have IE9 installed with software updates.

    Is there an easy way to detect IE9?

    TIA,

    Les

    Just run a report on iexplore.exe with a "where fileversion0" equals the version of IE you are looking for...easy peasy.

    try this report avilable here on http://eskonr.com/2010/04/sccm-reportcollection-for-computers-with-internet-explorer-with-different-versions/

    SELECT DISTINCT a.Name0 AS [Machine Name],
    b.SiteCode,c.FileVersion AS [IE Version],
    d.Operating_System_Name_and0,
    c.FilePath
    FROM v_GS_SoftwareFile c INNER JOIN
    v_GS_SYSTEM a ON c.ResourceID = a.ResourceID INNER JOIN
    v_R_System d ON a.ResourceID = d.ResourceID INNER JOIN
    v_FullCollectionMembership b ON a.ResourceID = b.ResourceID
    WHERE     (c.FileName = 'iexplore.exe') AND (c.FileVersion like '9%' )
    ORDER BY a.Name0

    Yes easy, but in my organization with 300 client computers it shows 1 (one) PC with IE9.

    Thanks Eswar,

    Yes this is helpfull.

    It does show up to four instances of IE on a single computer, but with export and import to Excel it is manageable.
