Are you talking about the Oracle Client?

In that case you can review the installation logs in the Oracle Inventory directory and look for the INSTALL_TYPE property:

INFO: INFO: ---------------------------------------
INFO: INFO: Starting to setup InstallClient
INFO: INFO: Initializing setup InstallClient
INFO: INFO: Session Details :
INFO: ---------------------------------------------------------------------
INFO:  PROPERTY                                               VALUE        
INFO: ---------------------------------------------------------------------                         
[...]
INFO:  INSTALL_TYPE                                           Administrator
