Simplest way is to check the properties of any of our DLL's etc using explorer - or do I misunderstand ?
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

I'm asking as a developer, so the question was if exists some API method or property which returns the version (like it is for XChange viewer API).

Hello anovy,

There is none documented, but I will speak with the guys to see if they have planned such a check for a future build.

Best,
Stefan

This can be done using the Windows API's available - we offer no function of our own.

Please see here :

there are also copious notes and postings on MSDN on use.
