Uninstalled Apps keeps showing in Discovered Apps

Hi, does anyone encountered a scenario that after uninstalling an application on user device, the application is still showing up on the Device Discovered apps?

 

We have a situation where we are manually uninstalling old versions of Python. The app is totally remove and can't be search on the machine but still getting detected by the Intune.

 

I found the registry where the discovered apps seems to be registered at

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\IntuneManagementExtension\Inventories\

 

However, even after manually deleting the registry key it keeps on coming back.

    Can you check if the last FullSync was after the unistallation of the app: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\IntuneManagementExtension\InventorySetting

     

     

  • Hey crsmr05, let me dive deeper into this topic to understand how the IME collecte the discovered apps.
    Can you check programs and features if the app is also not listed here.

      Jannik_Reinhard thanks for your response. Yes it is also not showing up in the programs and features. I also removed the left overs in the program files as well.
