Hi I'm looking for a way to show the dat version in use on a PC from the command line or from inside regedit or just from a drive share , any idea's ?
 
Hi tjbradford

In registry, go to: HKLM > Software > McAfee > AVEngine and you should be able to see the DAT version, DAT Date and many other attributes in Hexadecimal.

If its not already, all you then need to do is convert the Hexadecimal to Decimal.

Thanks

I know I'm stepping in a little late in the game, but... You could try something like this, based upon the logs:

Code:
@echo off
for /f "tokens=1 delims=*" %%a in ('type "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\McAfee\Common Framework\DB\PrdMgr_%COMPUTERNAME%.log"^|find /i "VIRUSCAN8700|General|szDATVersion"') do set DATVer=%%a
set DATVer=%DATVer:~-9%
echo DAT Version is: %DATVer%
