      What is the best way to detect what FOG client version is installed on a computer. Is there a registry or a file? I need that to add as a requirement for deploying the new agent of our new FOG system.

        @uwpviolator if you are using fog 1.3+ and allow the server to update the clients, the server will keep the clients updated automatically. They will pull the version available on your fog server and install it.

        If you really need versions, there’s a powershell cmdlet called Get-ItemProperty that does what you want:

        You could script that into a snapin and have it put results into a password protected share. That’s what I used to do.

          We are moving FOG servers including IP address so can auto update. I also cant run powershell scripts as a requirement in zenworks. I need either a registery or a file to say if this exist run or dont run the new FOG Client.

            @uwpviolator I’m not sure if such a file/key exists. We should ask @joe-schmitt about that. You could just do a wholesale - uninstall and reinstall for all your machines.
