As far as I can tell, Control Panel Programs Programs and features
displays info such as name, publisher, installed on size and version.
I do not see any path to where it is actually installed. The bottom
pane gives info such as contact data.
I wish to identify the exact path to the installed program. Is there a
way to do so within Windows? Or will it require a third party s/w to
do so and if so, recommendations?
Thanks. John.
If it has an icon on the desktop, right click on the icon and click
Properties, then click Shortcut tab. The exact path is shown in
Target.
That only works if it has a Shortcut icon on the desktop. Desktop
icons can be set to Shortcut (.lnk) with a link. It's fooled me
before!
