Finding the .Net Service Pack Version

How to find the Service Pack of .NET Framework installed:
Klaus Bjørn Jensen 17-07-2008
Check the version of mscorwks.dll.Not every file in the framework/runtime gets patched in a service pack or hotfix, but mscorwks.dll is the core DLL of the CLR/runtime so that gets patched in any CLR hotfix.
Go to C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\Select the corresponding Version (1.0 or 1.1 or 2.0 ...) then find a file with the Name "mscorwks.dll" right click & go for Properties & Version

This is a list the key build numbers for the CLR:
