Which version of MVC am I using?

Question

I can't find it for some reason, feeling a little dumb. How do I know? I'm using .net 4 with VS2010.

Answer 1

typeof(Controller).Assembly.GetName().Version

Gives the current version programmatically.

Answer 2

In Solution Explorer open packages.config and find Microsoft.AspNet.MVC:

package id="Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc" version="5.2.3" targetFramework="net461"

From the above we can see it's an Asp.Net MVC 5.2.3 Version.

Moreover packages.config file also helps us to track all the installed packages with their respective versions.

Answer 3

Navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft ASP.NET" folder. You will see "ASP.NET MVC 4" or something like that. To know detail navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft ASP.NET{your MVC version}\Assemblies\System.Web.Mvc.dll" Right click and see the version.
