I installed an update for Thunderbird.
VulnDetect shows the version 60.5
Help -> About shows the version 60.5.0

@Tom said in IObit Uninstaller - Alter Version Number:

Reading that post certainly indicates that you are right

I still see 7.5.0, I thought you wanted to fix this?

I know it is complicated to find a solution that fits all products.
But I would use the version number displayed in the app in Help -> About

@Tom The officially version number displayed in the Star Citizen Launcher is Star Citizen Alpha 3.4.1
Details see here: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link//16920-Star-Citizen-Alpha-341
So please call the product Star Citizen and set the version number to Alpha 3.4.1

Now I see 5.0.0-beta.21
Issue solved.

@Tom My plan was: as long as my company is using Windows 7, i will not move to a newer version. I do not like to learn twice. And i do not like to be alpha private tester of Microsoft.

Thank you

The primary issue is that you are too fast 😉

New versions need a Specific Rule, in some cases you can't see this, because the version number in the file is the same as the one on the site, but in other cases like FreeCommander, we need to rewrite it. The unknown versions are added automatically to our to do list and are usually added within a working day.

But this 790 releases might cause a headache, because now I added it as "public", but this time the "donor" is also at 790, so I guess @OLLI_S will complain soon 😄

@Anselm Yes, that is why I think this is an interesting case. We have some apps that we need to handle in other ways than pulling info from the files. So this is a bit of an experiment.

I will discuss this with my colleague tomorrow.

@Tom
Should we use the word Build (that is what users see in the app).
Or should we use release (like in the release notes, but this might confuse the user)
