How to determine MicroStation's installation date
With thanks to
Phil Chouinard
for sharing this tip on the disucssion groups.
To determine the installation date of MicroStation, or any other product, try this:
Start > Run > Regedit > OK
From the Registry Editor dialog, highlight
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Expand this selection and locate
Software\Bentley\MicroStation
Isolate your particular version and look at the
InstallDate
string.
From Microsoft Help: "The Microsoft Registry Editor enables you to view, search for, and change settings in your system registry, which contains information about how your computer runs. Although you can use Registry Editor to modify the registry, doing so is not recommended, as making incorrect changes can damage your system."
