Question:

I want to run the program MSINFO32.EXE. How can I do this so it works on any machine?

Answer:

You can find the path and name of MSINFO in the registry at \Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSInfo as shown in the code below.

program MSInfo32_Location;

function Get_MSInfo : String;
var
  Regist: TRegistry;
begin
  Regist := TRegistry.Create;
  Regist.RootKey := HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE;
  if Regist.OpenKeyReadOnly('Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSInfo') then
  begin
    Result := Regist.ReadString('Path')
  end
  else
  begin
    Result := ''
  end;

  Regist.CloseKey;
  Regist.Free;
end;

begin

end.
