This page provides information about parsing the installed Enscape version. This only applies to Enscape versions prior to 4.0.

Instructions

Enscape stores a text file - version.txt. It contains information about the currently installed version. You can use it for internal scripts to determine the installed version on computers in your company network.

If Enscape is installed for all users of the machine, this .txt file is usually located at:

<code><span class="line"><span>C:\Program Files\Enscape\Renderer\Bin64\version.txt</span></span></code>

If Enscape is installed in a custom location, that location appears here.

If Enscape is installed only for the current user, the .txt file is located at:

<code><span class="line"><span>C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Programs\Enscape\Renderer\Bin64</span></span></code>

If Enscape is installed in a custom location, that location appears here.

As an example, this is the type of text you can find contained within the version.txt file:

<code><span class="line"><span>3.1.0.2510-g1beec33</span></span></code>
