Custom File Info Tips: missing / wrong version infos

Post by matewo »

Hi All,

I enabled custom file info tips, including file version, product version (both standard fields) and version information (extra fields).

Using XYplorer version 25.20.0003 (fresh install) and changing mentioned options and check marks, I get for file xyplorer.exe just the info (see screenshot).
  • Is there a limit of attributes to be displayed? 15 attributes are displayed. If so, a warning or something would be very appreciated :)
  • Attribute named FileVersion is displayed (value 25.20.0003), but this is the content of attribute Product Version (see screenshot of Windows properties). Value of correct attribute File Version is 25.20.0.3.
  • Did I configure something wrong?
  • What is extra field version information (minor important for me)?
A second question related to this custom file infos. Is there a way to get this same infos via scripting (I haven't checked in help file nor searched in forum)?

Thanks and best regards, Markus

Wrong analysis (but understandable). Find a file where the file version and product version are different, and you will see that the tooltip shows the correct number. Only the formatting is slightly different.
