Find App Registry keys for App Masking

Scripts here can be used to gather information on applications for creating rule sets for App Masking & Java Control.
Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 returns Registry keys from well known locations that contain application information to return application keys for App Masking rules. An example use case for this would be determining specific locations for an application in a suite with shared components (e.g. Visio, Project or Skype for Business as a part of Office 365 ProPlus).
Install the Script
There are two methods for installing the script:
Install from the PowerShell Gallery. This is the preferred method as the installation can be handled directly from Windows PowerShell or PowerShell Core with the following command:
 Install-Script -Name Get-ApplicationRegistryKey
Download from the repository. Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 can be downloaded directly from this repository and saved to a preferred location.
Usage
The following example will find keys related to Microsoft Visio
. .\Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 -SeachString "Visio"
The value for SearchString can be passed to Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 via the pipeline. To search for Registry keys specific to Visio and Project by passing strings to Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 via the pilpeline, use:
C:\> "Visio", "Project" | .\Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1
To search for Registry keys specific to Adobe Reader or Acrobat:
C:\> .\Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 -SearchString "Adobe"
To search for Registry keys specific to Visio and Project:
C:\> .\Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 -SearchString "Visio", "Project"
To search for Registry keys specific to Skype for Business:
C:\> .\Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 -SearchString "Skype"
A list of Registry keys can be passed to Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 on the pipeline from an object with a Key property. For example, consider an object named $List that has a set of Registry paths in a property named Key:
C:\> $List
​
Title Key
----- ---
Path  HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID
Path  HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Classes
This object can be passed to Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1 on the pipeline as per the following example:
$List | . "\\Mac\Home\projects\FSLogix\Rules\Get-ApplicationRegistryKey.ps1" -Verbose -SearchString "Visio"
In each case, the script will output a list of keys, similar to the list below, that can then be validated and used in an App Masking ruleset:
