Veeam Backup & Replication • Re: [PATCH] Veeam Backup & Replication 12.3.2.4165 New Patch Delivery Options

FYI for Veeam.

The new .exe format is not updating the version of the installed program within Windows Registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

We are an MSP with many installation and we use Tanium to check the version through the registry, this method has worked solid for us, up until now.

In the installed programs list in Windows, it does show the correct version though. I believe when devs uses some package installers to create exe files, they have to update the registry manually, where MSI files tend to just do this automatically in Windows. This seems to have been forgotten for this patch.

I believe I read a post 1-2 years ago where a lot of people requested an PowerShell command for Veeam to get the version, I've just checked the documentation, unfortunately it does not seem like this has been added yet (Only VBO has it?).

Is there any native way within Veeam to get current version of VBR reliable that I don't know of since I've looked into this last?

EDIT:
This method displays two different versions for VBR, the previous build and the new build:
