netsetman.exe Version details missing

I want to update NetSetMan Pro with our Software Deployment Tool.

In the deployment rules I check if the installation of the package is possible on the client via the version of netsetman.exe
If netsetman.exe version is 5.1.1 no update installation is needed.

But the clients are ending in a installation loop when the update checker is running again.
The reasons is in Version 5.1.1 the details for the file and productversion are not present.
If you right click the properties of netsetman.exe and check the details tab you see the version details are missing. Same for nsmservice.exe

Re: netsetman.exe Version details missing

For some reason this information is indeed missing since the very first 5.x version, after we changed the development environment. We never noticed that, but will now try to reestablish that.

Instead of using the file details, you could also use the information from the netsetman.xml file which contains the version number as well.

We found the reason and adjusted it, so the file details will be included again with the next version. Thank you for reporting this issue!
