I am trying to make an application that will get the version of an installed application. For instance, I want to get the current version of Firefox that is installed in my system. I am using JavaFX. Thanks for all the help guys!

What I was working on is a launcher that will display the version of the currently installed application and the version that is available for download.

  • I understand your problem, but it is _unclear what you are asking_. "How do I do this" is not a good question. – gunr2171 Apr 16 '14 at 13:55

Maybe try to run a VB script from within java. Works perfect for me, I am reading out on my Windows 7 PC the motherboards serial number with exactly the script this user here has posted :
How can I get my motherboard's ID, using Java, in Linux, Mac, and Solaris?
