Collecting installed software (Current-User)

SCCM doesn't seem to be collecting software that is installed on a per-user basis and only the ones installed for all users. For example, if someone installs Google Chrome it installs only for that specific user and we're not seeing that with SCCM. This is just one example, I have other click once applications that are showing in add/remove programs for that user but don't show in SCCM

How can we collect this data?

Take the reports of the application.

You will get the information of that application along with installation detalis (To Machine or to User)

Enable Software metering to meter the application and pull the reports

Enable software inventory and pull the reports. Software Inventory lists all the softwares installed in client ma

Hi,

Have you tried to initiate "Hardware Inventory Cycle" action on the client? After a while, the Chrome should appear in SCCM console(Assets and Compliance->Overview->Devices->right-click a specific computer->Start->Resource Explorer->Hardware->Installed Applications)

Yes, I know this is an old post, but Im trying to clean them up. Did you solve this problem, if so what was the solution?

This information is stored in the ARP program but for the user only. Therefore you will need to create a scrip to collection this data and therefore expose it to the normal Hardware inventory.
