You should be able to do something like the following:
- Find out where Wireshark is installed via
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
App Paths\wireshark.exe
- Run GetBinaryType on the result.
Note that "App Paths" is one of the registry keys affected by WOW64
redirection so different versions of Windows might add a thoroughly fun
and enjoyable technical challenge to this.
