How to get the current product version in C#?

Question

How can I programmatically get the current product version in C#?

My code:

VersionNumber = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName

In C# you need to use reflection and diagnostics

Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
FileVersionInfo fileVersionInfo = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(assembly.Location);
string version = fileVersionInfo.ProductVersion;
