Hello,

We would like to get the list of all the domain-joined computers and the required softwares installed report on them.

Is there a way using PowerShell?

Thank you.

    Hi @Shamyog ,

    getting all domain-joined computers is doable using the Get-AdComputer cmdlet (Get-AdComputer)

    The result you can pipe in a Foreach-Object.

    In the Foreach-Object you could use Invoke-Command (Invoke-Command) to run Get-Package Get-Package) on each computer and compare the result set with your list of required software.

    I haven't found a "ready to go" script. But with the information above you can get started with your script.

    (If the reply was helpful please don't forget to upvote and/or accept as answer, thank you)
