problem with new user...possibly
Good afternoon.
The scenario is:
User starts working for our company, on a system that has been known to be very flaky for the previous user. I can't reformat the drive, yet, because she hasn't gone through all the files yet. The previous user had been duely warned about installing 3rd party, non-standard, software, so she didn't do it. (she didn't want her system to crash)
The problem is:
All of a sudden, today while working on her system, I notice 3 new pieces of software (3rd party of course). My problem is, because I have no "proof" that she installed the software, I can't go to her supervisor and say that she did indeed do it.
The question is:
Is there any way, in Windows 95, to determine the date the software was installed, and without any doubt? This way I'll have the proof I need to make the verbal "hand slap".
I've tried Technet, using various key phrases, but can't find any information that helps. Google also comes back with nothing of use.
Thanks, in advance, for any help you can give!!

I assume each of the programs have created their own folders.. look at the corresponding folder date attribute... it is the day it was created.... unless the user was smart enough to change the system time before installing.
