Adobe Digital Editions version checks

Report · Apr 07, 2021

Hi Team,

we have installed Adobe Digital Edition of 4.5.11.187303 installed on our workstations.

but we are seeing 4.5.11.0 in the properties DigitalEditions.exe (C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Digital Editions 4.5\DigitalEditions.exe) please confirm if this is an expected thing.

when looking at programs and features we are seeing 4.5.11 not the full version please advice

when we launch the ADE application and click on help and check the version there then we have the right version 4.5.11.187303.

not sure how to detect the version from sccm or with tenable.

I just reported the exact same issue. As far as SCCM I created a custom registry key to show that this was the version I installed.

I wish they used standard development practices, it would make it alot easier.

Adobe just released a new version of ADE (4.5.12) and after many years, this time it is a minor version upgrade instead of a build version upgrade. They did this specifically to address the issue that asset management and vulnerability management tools were not able to correctly detect the installed version because in the past the installer was not correctly setting the required registry keys.
