Hi,

Event type 'Link' and 'Unlink' we can see always, but 'Delete' is rarely.
Can you please explain why some applications have 'Delete' and 'Unlink' ?
Btw, what means source: SQLCMD?
Regards
Accepted Solutions

I expect the "Delete" events here occur when an application that is currently recognized as installed on a computer is deleted from the ARL.
SQLCMD is a SQL Server tool that is used to run SQL scripts that perform the ARL update process - so I'm thinking that these events may indicate that the identified applications were deleted from the ARL in one of the updates that were published by Flexera.

Re: Source: SQLCMD - Event type: Delete - Description: Deleted Software Application
@ChrisG
Perfect. Thanks a lot for the answer.
It was also my guess but I want to be sure to understand it correctly.
