jimwillsher 65 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Hello The list of "Installed Applications" is fantastic, I use it a lot, across 200+ client machines. Is there a way to force a refresh of the list? Thanks Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimwillsher 65 Posted April 20, 2022 Author Share Posted April 20, 2022 Thanks rekun, that was my understanding too but for some reason the lists didn't seem to be getting updated. However I've checked on a few PCs and they are now showing correctly, so I think it's resolved. Thank you for taking time to reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Staff MartinK 378 Posted April 21, 2022 ESET Staff Share Posted April 21, 2022 Actually list is not updated upon each connection, but rather when AGENT receives notification from operating system (via WMI) that there are relevant changes. So in case WMI is operational, and AGENT is connecting to management console, it should be almost instant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimwillsher 65 Posted April 21, 2022 Author Share Posted April 21, 2022 Oh perfect, thanks Martin. That sounds good, as it means it's quick but not resource-intensive - our clients check in every 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed that is a reason why it is implemented in this way, but on other side, we are more and more seeing issues with WMI, so it might happen that on systems where WMI is not fully operational, it will take much longer time until list is updated.
