In the past we've installed a lot of sofware to PCs manually. Now we want to control this PCs by Prism Deploy. We're looking for a way, to tell PD that this software (packages) are already installed on the PCs whitout to reinstall them. It should be on a way, that the software can be uninstalled by PD, although it wasn't installed by PD.

Best Regards
M. Kreuzer

You should be able to go into the "Configuration Groups" tab and start creating configuration groups based on whether or not certain software is installed.  You can have it look for the instance of a certain file or registry key that corresponds with that software.  This will allow you to see all the computers that have a certain piece of software.

You can also create a config group based on that file or registry key not being there, that would mean that you are creating a group that will show all the pc's that don't have that software installed so you would know what computers you'll need to install it to.
