| .SYNOPSIS | |
| Gets the installation directory for a program in the registry. | |
| .DESCRIPTION | |
| Get-InstallationPath gets the installation path for a program in the InstallProperties registry key. This method is much more reliable and change-resistant than searching the file system with partial paths. | |
| . | |
| The function returs a custom object with the DisplayName, Publisher, and InstallationPath so you can confirm that the path returns is for the intended program. | |
| . | |
| If the script cannot find the installation path for the program, it generates a non-terminating error. |
