Hello, I would like know (if exists?!?) an algorithm to find all
application installed and their execution path (path + file name).

Thanks in advance...

It would depend on the definition of the word 'installed'. The
HKey_Classes_Root hive contains all file associations for your system, and
what 'open' action to use for it, but there are executable files copied to
your system with no entry in the registry at all. If you did a Search
(including system and hidden files,) for *.exe, *.com, and so on, you would
see all the executable file names.
