By using following code[C#], we can know the path where googlechrome is installed. But, this code first starts chrome.exe, then takes its path. My question is without starting chrome.exe, how can I know the path?

        ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
        startInfo.FileName = "chrome.exe";
        string argmnt = @"-g";
        startInfo.Arguments = argmnt;

        String path = null;
        try
        {
            Process p = Process.Start(startInfo);
            path = p.MainModule.FileName;
            p.Kill();
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            return String.Empty;
        }
