Version & PP1 on Windows Home Server Console
-

I used the key "HKCU/Control Panel/Desktop" and changed "PaintDesktopVersion from zero to one. Then I logged off and restarted the system.
I now have:
"Windows Home Server
Build 3790 (Service Pack 2)"
on my desktop in the lower right corner of my screen.
However, it would be better if this was indicated on the "Windows Home Server Console". Also, it would be nice for the PP1 to be indicated also?
Is there anyway to do this?

2008년 7월 25일 금요일 오후 6:54I guess I'm missing the point of this post. After installing PP1, log into your WHS Console, then go to the Settings tab, then to Resources. Mine shows up in the Version Information window as 6.01800.0 as well as actually saying 'Windows Home Server with Power Pack 1". So, how is this not enough to satisfy your request? What more do you want?

As most people shouldn't be going through the WHS machine's desktop, it isn't a serious issue. But for those who keep it up as a local machine, it is handy to have. It's unsupported and I doubt the WHS team will spend time to do it, but hey... it is a Suggestions forum
