Detect Windows 7?

[dmetzler]

I am using IS 2008 Professional and want to add support for the detect of Windows 7. This may be done with a custom action.

Does anyone know the values to check?

What are the Windows 7 values for VersionNT and WindowsBuild?

Thanks,

Don

For windows VISTA Pack 1 (SP1) the VersioNT value is 600 and WindowsBuild value is 6001 , there is no value available for Widnwo7 for now, perhaps you could condition like

if VersionNT > 600 ???

VersionNT will be 601 on a Windows 7 machine:
