Default Add Remove Programs

how can i differentiate windows updated programs and installed programs from
registry
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsofe\Windows\Cur rentVersion\Uninstall\"

I got one difference, for the installed programs there is no "ReleaseType"
registerkey
for Updated Program "ReleaseType" will one of the following
1.HotFix
2.Update
3.Security Update

I am not sure whether it is correct or not

But the problem is I have one updation named "Windows Genuine Advantage
Validation Tool (KB892130)"
this one doesnt have release type.

how can i know whether it is updation or not?

In Add and Remove programs list it displayed under updated programs
