B.3 Main AppManager Keys and Folders

The AppManager registry keys and folders located in SOFTWARE\NetIQ\AppManager\4.0 (for 32-bit computers) and SOFTWARE\SysWow6432\NetIQ\AppManager\4.0 (for 64-bit computers) contain the most important registry key information for AppManager Version 4.0 and later.

  • The key values provide version and build information for the AppManager executables (.exe) and libraries (.dll) installed on a computer. All of the values are recorded during installation and provide useful information to verify the compatibility of components installed on a computer. You should not manually change any of these values. The format for the version and build number is n.n.nnnnn.n (for example, 6.0.56615.0) and is the same for all components.

  • The registry folders contain keys and subfolder keys that control the behavior of AppManager components installed on the computer and the communication between local AppManager components and AppManager components installed on other computers.

For example, you may see some or all of the following folders:
