How do I determine which service pack (if any) Visual Studio is running? Right now I'm trying to determine if a machine is running VS2008 or VS2008 SP1.

Found it. It's not the version number as I initially expected.

Go to Help > About Microsoft Visual Studio and it's under Installed Products:

Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition - ENU Service Pack 1 (KB945140)

I had to scroll through the list to find it.

    My VS doesn't show what you mentioned. Instead it shows "HotFix for Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition - ENU(######) ######". is there any other way to check the version?? – Nipuna Mar 24 '11 at 04:12
  • Also is Microsoft .NET Framework Version 3.5 SP1 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition - ENU Service Pack 1 are 2 different things? – Nipuna Mar 24 '11 at 04:14
