File Versions - There are none about zotero-standalone-build HOT 6 CLOSED

We might be able to add this to the build script with https://github.com/electron/rcedit.

That would be very helpful with version detection in SCCM

What matters here, the "File version" field or the "Product version" field? And is it just the primary .exe that matters?

https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/91128/managed-install-automatic-updates-issue/p1 suggests that this is impeding automated updates (which wasn't at all clear to me from the above — sorry), but I don't know anything about SCCM, so I'd need some guidance here as to what the actual problem is. Is the goal just to have one file/property that can be easily checked to determine the installed version?

File Version please, with the version to match the changelog version number
Thanks

OK, I've added this for the current Zotero beta channel. The current release version of 5.0.96.3 is still 5.0.0.0, but the next release will have a proper version — either 5.0.96.4 if there's another Zotero 5 release or 6.0.0.0/6.0.1.0/6.0.2.0 for Zotero 6.0/6.0.1/6.0.2.

Since File Version seems to be limited to four integers, that won't show a proper version for beta builds — e.g., 5.0.97-beta.38 and all future 5.0.97 betas will be 5.0.97.0, as would the release build of 5.0.97. But people using SCCM probably aren't going to be managing beta builds. If someone really wants to, I assume there's a way to use Product Version, which will be a Mozilla Manifest Version Format string (e.g., 5.0.97-beta.37+ddc7be75c).

Thank you very much

This should be very helpful, and I look forward to the next version release.
