Feature Request - Report for last used

I would love to be able to run a report on a software title to see when it was last used by our users so we could re-harvest the software package and deploy it to another user. Is this possible?

This is going to get pretty screwy at best. You can attack this either via the registry or using WMI. The trick will be finding an application that actually writes to a LastUsed object properly. Because......most don't. If you want to get "close enough", and not dead on, I would start there.

You could modify the desktop shortcut of the application to point to a script that writes the current time to a file then launches the application. You could then scan for that file with PDQ.
