Setup.exe version

I am researching if the actual setup.exe version can be somehow displayed in the batch process that updates the EBF installation.

In order to allow for an unattended EBF installation the downloaded executable has to be extracted first (see Launching unattended EBF installation). However, after the files for the 12.0.1.3484 build were extracted I checked the file properties of the setup.exe file and it is showing 12.0.1.3488 (32-bit) as the File Version.

This is happening as a result of the way that we do our build and QA processes. We always re-build the install just before we are ready to release an EBF so that we get all of the most recent changes included. Since the time that we started the QA process on build 3484, we had already progressed and done several more builds and the EBF is released using a newer version of setup.exe.

To determine the version of the EBF, look for the ProductVersion attribute in the file setup.ini. It will have the correct version of the SA build.
