Both variants you suggested not fit my needs.

Finally I have to wrote such simple utility by myself.

Here the link

Here the some part of "readme.txt" for it:

Command line tool to enum installed products,

find one and run command specified in "UninstallString" or

"QuietUninstallString" parameter.

Usage examples:

1) to generate list of installed products

or better to say - list of all keys in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft

\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

use command:

UninstallUtil.exe -lp -sf=$,DisplayName,ProductGuid > list.txt

or (with long option names):

UninstallUtil.exe --list-products --search-fields=

$,DisplayName,ProductGuid > list.txt

2) to run command specified in the "UninstallString" value for

specified product use:

UninstallUtil.exe -sf=$,DisplayName -pn="BTO Offline Solution"

or (with long option names):

UninstallUtil.exe --search-fields=$,DisplayName --product-name="BTO

Offline Solution"
