Workstation is a desktop application. In some cases, IT will need to determine if Workstation is already installed using a script.
This article explains how to find the evidence of the successful installation.
On Windows environments, Workstation has a registry entry that IT can check to indicate if the .exe file is installed.
|
REGISTRY LOCATION: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run REGISTRY KEY: Workstation REGISTRY VALUE: "C:\Users\<CURRENT_USER>\AppData\Local\Workstation\update.exe" --processStart "Workstation.exe" |

On macOS environments, IT teams can check if Workstation is installed by typing the below command within the terminal:
|
mdfind “kMDItemKind == 'Application'” | grep “Workstation.app” |
The prompt should list the Workstation .app file path if the application is installed:
|
/Applications/Workstation.app |
