[Solved] Skype (classic) - Wrong Version detected

[OLLI_S]

Skype (classic) is found on my system in the following folder:

• C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe

Errors:

• The installed version is not detected correctly (VulnDetect displays the version 7.41)
• The version displayed in Help -> About inside Skype is 7.41.0.101

---

Here is the version information extracted from skype.exe:

Product name:      Skype
Internal name:     Skype.exe
Original filename: Skype.exe

File description:  Skype 
Company:           Skype Technologies S.A.
Legal copyright:   © 2003 - 2012 Skype and/or Microsoft
Comments:          

File version:      7.41.0.101
Product version:   7.41
Assembly version:  

So you should use the version number displayed in the File Version of the EXE file.

I've improved it for some versions of Skype "classic". This currently requires manual editing for each version, but this will be changed

I did 3 full system scans, but Skype still shows version 7.41

@olli_s Did this not change for you? I also have the same version of Skype and that is detected correctly.

Now version 7.41.0.101 is displayed.
Issue solved!
