Engaged Sweeper

Hello,

On a Windows server, LanSweeper is getting the version of the program from "add/remove programs" whereas the application has been upgraded to a newer version (directly in the program folder and it is visible on the local Tomcat website).

Is there a way to change this behaviour?

Regards

Hello Yann9880,
When scanning software, we mainly try scanning it, as it is listed in add/remove programs.

What is visible there should also be visible in Lansweeper. To do that, we scan several registry locations to get the necessary information. 

If your asset was rescanned recently then the latest information should be also present. Note that there can be delay as well if your scan item interval for software is set to a number of days. A manual rescan, should scan the device completely though.

 

If you have any doubts, you can also contact the Support team. They can assist you in troubleshooting this further.
