Great script, thanks you've saved me hours of coding. I modified the reg key as follows to work on Exchange 2010 SP1:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\AE1D439464EB1B8488741FFA028E291C

This is a common Powershell error if the Powershell environment cannot locate the script your are trying to run. It will also happen if you are not running the script from the Exchange Management Shell.

Open EMS and move to the folder where the script exists to run it.

Hi Jeff, I run the script from EMS but I got the following error message;

or script file. Verify the term and try again.

To get the correct installed version of Exchange, modify line 18 as follows.
$txt1 = $MsxServer.Name + " [" + $MsxServer.ServerRole + "] [" + $MsxServer.Edition + "] " + $MsxServer.AdminDisplayVersion #$MsxVersion.ExchangeBuild.toString()

2010-09-17T10:21:33.466-07:00

ExchangeVersion returned in not entirely correct. The version returned is "the minimum version of the product that can read the object".

Ok. Just one question.. I don't have any Exchange 2007 in my env. Will the 'Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Management Tools (32-Bit)' work in my Exch 2003 env?

Anonymous: Chances are you're running the script from a PowerShell prompt, instead of the Exchange Management Shell. Run the script from EMS and it should work.

There is a bug in the installed date string.. should be
$d = $d.substring(4,2) + "/" + $d.substring(6,2) + "/" + $d.substring(0,4)

(originally there were 2 references to substring(4,2)

Thanks, Shay, but that only gives you the Exchange version number.

The code above tells you the Exchange version number, build number, which Update Rollup versions are installed and when they were installed. This is the only way I've found to determine which UR is installed.

How about one line of code :-)
