Issue:
Service Pack of MSXML is not apparent. For
example, the Add\Remove Programs applet may list MSXML6 Parser as an
installed program, without mention that it is Service Pack 2.
Environment:
Windows All Versions
Solution:
Look at the version of the %systemfiles%\msxml*.dll
The number which follows the major version is the "Service Pack"
For example, if on the properties of msxml6.dll, the version is 6.2, then the Service Pack is 2.
Project: Detect MSXML Service Pack from Command Line
Obtain
the latest version of "filever.exe", available for free from Microsoft

Then, run the following:
filever.exe C:\Windows\System32\msxml* > xmlversions.txt
findstr /C:" 4.0" xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML4)
findstr /C:" 4.1" xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML4SP1)
findstr /C:" 4.2" xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML4SP2)
findstr /C:" 4.3" xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML4SP3)
findstr /C:" 6.0" C:\Temp\xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML6)
findstr /C:" 6.1" C:\Temp\xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML6SP1)
findstr /C:" 6.2" C:\Temp\xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML6SP2)
findstr /C:" 6.3" C:\Temp\xmlversions.txt > nul
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (ECHO MSXML6SP3)
