            Bug ID: 103786
           Summary: Knowing the product version via Registry query
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]

Knowing the product version is the key for automated updates with a batch
script. To know the version I've read to major way to do it:

a) the Registry way is little tricky and depends from version to version.. 
 - for 5.2 REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\The Document
Foundation\LibreOffice\5.2\{4B17E523-5D91-4E69-BD96-7FD81CFA81BB}" -v
ProductVersion
 - for 5.1 REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\The Document
Foundation\LibreOffice\5.1\{4B17E523-5D91-4E69-BD96-7FD81CFA81BB}" -v
ProductVersion

b) the .exe -version way give a graphic popup:
 C:\Program Files (x86)\LibreOffice 5\program>swriter.exe -version 

Is possible a c) better method to know the ProductVersion for 32/64bit
installation?


In MS Office the easy Registry way is with one query for all versions:
 reg query "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Word.Application\CurVer"


SUGGESTION/Enanchement: is possibile to set a registry key without
subversion-key like this one:
 -> HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\LibreOffice.Application\ProductVersion

or modify the existing one:
 -> HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\The Document
Foundation\LibreOffice\ProductVersion
