Christian, hey long time no post
 
Here are some I've come across, just looking in my system32 folder and I sorted by filetype extension:
 
.acm
.ax
.cpl
.cpk
.drv
.lrc
.olb
.qts
.qtx
.scr
.tlb
.tsp
.vxd
 
 
I'm sure there are more even then this

Hi Gang,
It's me again still no replies so I have to assume one of two things either I covered all the bases or most people didn't know what in the hell I was talking about. Just in case it's that latter here's a screenshot:

 
Also what kind of an idiot would call his company sinner computing ? I'm an atheist and even I think "sinner" has a negative connotation. That's gotta be bad for business.
Hope that helps ;(,

Hi Jmmijo,
I remember you, we chatted about CD-RW manufacturers one time. How did you know all those file types? Did you just start playing with them to answer me or are you extra observant? Or do you have a tool that searches for that or something? Or do you have explorer displaying the version number along with the date, time, and etc.? I should have rememberd that VXD and DRV files are versioned I used to work with drivers at Microsoft for crying out loud . Course it was years ago now. I did however notice that you can't get the version info on a VXD file on the NT platform. I realize VXD files violate NT's security model, but shouldn't it still yeild the version info? Oh well. I wonder if I can't write my own code to get my app to detect the version info on its own for the NT Platform.
Cheers,
Christian

Hey I found two more file types:
.SFX - 7-Zip
.E32 - Inno Setup
 
However both of these files are nothing, but masked .exe files so that's how I knew they would have version info, but I didn't know the OS was going to cooperate and display the file versions.
Cheers,
Christian Blackburn

I'm all of these things plus more

I just use Explorer in View Details mode and then sort by file type. Then right mouse click and check for the presence of a Version tab

Hi Jmmijo,
Okay well it sounds like you were going to the same lengths I was, but without my need to make it work. How kind of you! Thanks for the help. I've decided that I am not going to support specific file extensions and I'll just provide the Copy Name and Version and Copy Title & Version functions for all files using the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\Shell\ Key.
Thanks again,
Christian Blackburn

You can put .pae in that list.

Hi Copernicus,
Thanks for your help however, I realized that I don't need a list. I'm just going to give users the option of viewing version info on any file extension they want. What is a .PAE anyways? Anyone ever been to FilExt
Thanks for your help all the same ,
Christian Blackburn

After using FilExt, I'm guessing your file is a PowerArchiver 2002 Encrypted Archive.
Cheers,
Christian
