Hi

Just a simple question. I think I need to treat an install differently if it is on Windows XP Professional or Windows XP Home Edition. I know how to detect XP, with

Get Exact OS Level into OS
if Variable OS Equals XP

But how would I distinguish between Professional and Home Edition?

Dear Martin,

unfortunately, you need to develop a specific dll or an exe for that.

This information can be retrived using the "GetVersionEx" WIN API.

Hope this helps you.
