pekster Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 Just get the version of it. Here's an example for IE: $version = FileGetVersion(@ProgramFilesDir & "\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe") MsgBox(0, "IE Version", "Your IE version is: " & $version) [font="Optima"]"Standing in the rain, twisted and insane, we are holding onto nothing.Feeling every breath, holding no regrets, we're still looking out for something."[/font]Note: my projects are off-line until I can spend more time to make them compatable with syntax changes.

Here's an example for IE: $version = FileGetVersion(@ProgramFilesDir & "\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe") MsgBox(0, "IE Version", "Your IE version is: " & $version) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Or, some MS patches install into or create seperate folders, like %systemroot%\$NtUninstallKB835732$ which you can check for.

PAJ Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Just get the version of it. Here's an example for IE: $version = FileGetVersion(@ProgramFilesDir & "\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe") MsgBox(0, "IE Version", "Your IE version is: " & $version) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Checking the file version of iexplore.exe doesn't give you the correct version of IE as a whole. Better to use : $IEVersion = RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Micorsoft\Intenret Explorer\", "Version" You need this IE version if you are applying IE critical updates, don't rely on the file version of iexplore.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
