Well I have XP SP2 RTM on my PC here.  The Windows and Windows/System32
folders have tons of system files dated as      being Modified on
8/4/2004 with file versions as being SP2 

The Framework folder of v1.1.4322 has not any files dated that recently.


So I would say that folder wasn't touched by SP2.

Subject: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] .NET vs Windows SP versioning?


Two simple questions for which I should know the answer, but don't:

Does XP SP2 include the .NET framework?  If so, what version(s)?  Does
it include any bits from the upcoming .NET service packs [1]?

[1]
http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/downloads/updates/sptechpreview/

I've heard varying stories, so I'm looking for an authoritative answer,
here.  (The FAQ at [1] says XP SP2 is "not the same thing" -- duh -- but
it stops short of saying XP SP2 doesn't touch the .NET Framework at
all.)

I've always hoped that, one day, I would experience a flash of
enlightenment and understand why the v1.1 assemblies are alternately
versioned as v1.0.5000.0 and v1.1.4322.573, in the GAC and Fx dir
respectively.  But I've been working with .NET for years now, and it
hasn't happened...

My point is, I'm not even sure what to begin looking for, to see if XP
SP2 touched the CLR.

If anyone can give me a clue, I'd be grateful.
