Not quite sure what you are asking here. Do you mean 'where was the MSI installed from'? or 'Which GPO had the instruction to install the MSI'?

Not sure how you would track back to find the installation source path as the MSI is copied to the PC when it is installed (and renamed to boot!) You could looking for the Windows Installer registry entries.

If you are trying to track down a software assignment, try Group Policy Management Console RSOP or GPRESULT on the PC in question.

basicly rm network they have app folder if you put package in there the rm install which is mod version of active dir msi install

then there is tools folder which packages in there get out around the whole network as standard i.e system utils they bypass inherrientence blocking etc

anyway you would have though adding the msi to tolls folder rmmc picks up it up so you can assign it like in app folder

but not so somewhere in ad in one of gpos there is list of system packages...

dont you love rm
