SCCM Versions, Build Numbers, Console and Client Details

This article lists all the SCCM versions, build numbers, console version numbers, and SCCM site and client version numbers. The latest SCCM (aka ConfigMgr) current branch build numbers and version numbers are updated with every new release.

Every Configuration Manager current branch release has a unique build number, version number, console version number and full version number associated with it. In addition, every major SCCM version also updates the client agent version.

The hotfix updates, if they include client agent fixes, will also update the client agent version number. Look at the list of all the SCCM hotfixes and rollup updates released for every version of the current branch.

SCCM Current Branch Release Cycle

The SCCM CB release has been changed to two versions per year. As per the SCCM new release cadence, there will be two current branch versions released every year instead of three versions. This change will come into effect after the release of Configuration Manager version 2303.

By releasing two SCCM current branch updates per year, Microsoft believes that it will reduce ConfigMgr deployment management. SCCM administrators will have one less upgrade to do. This modification will enable Configuration Manager to continue releasing high-quality updates while having a longer development cycle to respond to important customer feature requests.

SCCM Technical Preview Release Cadence

The release cadence has been changed for technical preview versions as well. There will be four ConfigMgr Technical Preview (TP) releases per year. Two will be released before each current production branch release, with one of the technical preview releases serving as a baseline release. You can find details of all the SCCM technical preview releases and their build numbers listed in the following guide: https://www.prajwaldesai.com/sccm-technical-preview-build-version-numbers/.

What is SCCM Version Number?

When you install a new SCCM version or update SCCM to the latest build, the version is a number associated with SCCM. For example, if you upgrade from SCCM 2107 to SCCM 2111, the version number of your SCCM is 2111.

Use the following steps to find the SCCM version number of the current branch:

• Launch the ConfigMgr Console.
• Click About > Configuration Manager.
• In the About Microsoft Configuration Manager window, you see the Version Number.

What is SCCM Full Version Number?

The SCCM full version number includes the build number, major version, minor version, and revision number. To explain the SCCM full version number, let’s consider the SCCM 2403 release as an example. You can understand what the full site version number of SCCM means by looking at the table below.

The SCCM build number is unique for every release and gets updated with every major release. The build number won’t change after installing the hotfixes.

Find SCCM Full Version from Registry

Along with SCCM build numbers, you can find SCCM full version details in the registry. On the SCCM server, open the Registry Editor and browse to the following path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Setup.

Look for the value name “Full Version,” and that shows the SCCM full version number. For example, in the below screenshot, the full version of SCCM 2107 is 5.00.9058.1000. Do not modify any of those registry values, as they may interfere with Configuration Manager’s operation.

How do I find the SCCM Build Number?

There are multiple methods to find the build number of SCCM. To get the current SCCM build number, you can either look at the registry or the properties of the site server. Out of the two methods, you can quickly get the build number of ConfigMgr by going to the site server’s properties. Let us go over both of these methods for determining the build number.

Use Registry to Find the Build Number of SCCM
