If you get an error of ApplicationDeployment, then you can try this:

For global version accessing through Program, declare inside Program class:

private static Version version = new Version(Application.ProductVersion);

public static Version Version
{
    get
    {
        return version;
    }
}

Now you have Program.Version anywhere available in the program and you can use it to get version information like this:

LabelVersion.Text = String.Format("Version {0}.{1}",
    Program.Version.Major.ToString(),
    Program.Version.Minor.ToString());
