Does ACC-V discovery include file based discovery

[Thor Simensen]

We have seen that ACC-V is able to list applications installed on computers if the application is listed in the Add/Remove programs.  Does ACC-V contain any type of file based discovery to find applications that are not listed in Add/Remove programs?

Hi Thor, yes - acc-v supports file-based discovery.

Hello RAM,
Can you provide a link to the online docs on how to implement the file based discovery with ACC-V?
I'm interested in understanding how much of the file based discovery requires manual configuration vs some kind of automation that would take advantage of software model data that might contain the executable file and the preferred SW Published path for the executable.

Thank You,
Thor Simensen
