How can i see the assembly version of a .NET assembly in Windows Vista and newer (WIndows 7, 2008)?
No. Not from explorer. It is an intentional move by Microsoft (although I dislike it). You can from powershell though: [Reflection.AssemblyName]::GetAssemblyName(‘full-path-to\xxxx.dll’).Version Also if file version is not explicitly set it will default to assembly version.
