Identifying Version of Team Foundation Server

Question

Can someone with Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2010 SP1 installed on their server tell me what version is showing up on TFS Administration Console.

I'd like to find out if our server has been updated with SP1 or not?

Many thanks

Microsoft Team Foundation Server Support published the complete list of all Team Foundation Server versions from 2005 onwards (till November 2013).

The below chart lists the TFS Versions with Product Version number.
SP = Service Pack and CU = Cumulative Update

• Team Foundation Server 2005

  RTM             SP1 8.0.50727.147   8.0.50727.762 

• Team Foundation Server 2008

  RTM         SP1 9.0.21022.8 9.0.30729.1 

• Team Foundation Server 2010

  RTM             SP1             CU2 10.0.30319.1    10.0.40219.1    10.0.40219.371

  There is no Update 1 for TFS 2013

Answer 2

In the console, if I go to Help....About Team Foundation Administration Console it shows:

Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2010 (30319.01)

You could also look in the View Installed Updates in the Programs and Features in Control Panel (depending on your OS).

Answer 3

Open the folder "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2010\Tools" and add the "File Version" column. The Microsoft.TeamFoundation.* DLLs with the highest version number indicate which updates have been applied:

10.0.30319.1 - TFS 2010 RTM
10.0.40219.1 - TFS 2010 with Service Pack 1
10.0.40219.371 - TFS 2010 with Service Pack 1 and Cumulative Update 2

This helped:

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/tfssetup/2013/11/21/what-version-of-team-foundation-server-do-i-have

But if for some reason you cannot get there because you don't have remote access to the server, you can check the area of web.config (if you have access to that via ftp or something)

I found

<add key="applicationSettingsReader" value="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server.WebApplicationSettings, Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Framework.Server, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />

in there.
