IntuneWinAppUtil GUI 1.0.9 adds Get-IntuneFileVersion, a command that reads the FileVersion of a file, which is the value to use in an Intune detection rule based on a file version.

Get-IntuneFileVersion 'C:\Program Files\Contoso\App.exe'

The version Windows shows in a file's properties is not always the one Intune compares in a detection rule, and a mismatch makes the app reinstall at every check-in. I wrote about it, in Italian, on gioxx.org.

The command works from the command line only: the GUI does not use it yet. If you already have 1.0.8 and don't need it, you can skip this update.
