Manage versions of 2017 Standard and Pro from a licensing perspective

The install for 2017 Pro & Standard is the same, just a different license used. When you look in add remove programs it is listed as Adobe Acrobat 2017, no discernable difference between the two versions. We are trying to manage licenses and we are unable to determine what versions are installed on which computer without actually opening the application and looking at the application bar or the about section. I need a file or setting that I can run a query on.

Has anyone else run into this issue and found a registry key or file on the systems that determines which version is installed?

Did you check the Enterprise Deployment Guide? I seem to remember there is a tag file that is created.
