Extracting Software Display Name and Display Version from a .reg file

Hey guys,

I need a tiny tool to help parse 2 strings from a .reg file  – should be fairly easy J

USE CASE

The script will open the .reg file  and for every Instance of:

“[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\”

Extract data from the following headers:

·      Display Name
·      Display Version

Present the output it in a comma deliminated or .xls output.
