Ok, thank you very much. Very good with set administrator password (it 
works), but I've problem with installed software. The list is not 
complete (I don't understand). For example key "Adobe Flash Player 
ActiveX" return this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#49>", line 1, in <module>
    key = OpenKey(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Adobe Flash Player ActiveX', 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS)
WindowsError: [Error 2] Impossibile trovare il file specificato (Impossible find file)


But key "Software\MicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion\Uninstall\Adobe Flash 
Player ActiveX" exists.
What's the problem? The spaces? I don't think so.

This is the code:

import wmi
from _winreg import (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, KEY_ALL_ACCESS, OpenKey, EnumValue, QueryValueEx)

host='XXXX'
reg = wmi.WMI(host,namespace="root/default").StdRegProv
result, names = reg.EnumKey (hDefKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,sSubKeyName=r"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall")
keyPath = r"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"
count = 0
while count <= len(names):
    try:
        print names[count]
        path = keyPath + "\\" + names[count]
        key = OpenKey(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, path, 0, KEY_ALL_ACCESS)
        temp = QueryValueEx(key, 'DisplayName')
        display = str(temp[0])
        print names[count]+" -> "+display
        count += 1
    except:
        count += 1
        continue



Thanks again
