Windows 10: Latest MSXML Version

Hi, How can I download the latest version of MSXML separate from updating the OS? Current version is 6.30.19041.4355. I'm struggling to find the link to an online installer. The online page does not delve into detailed version information: List of XML parser versions Microsoft LearnMy current version is ahead from 6.30.7600.16385.Thanks!

MSXML version...

Hi There,

I can see that MSXML 6.0 v6.30.17763.1339 is installed on the machine. I want to know the service pack version of this.

I used following steps to find file version of msxml6.dll:

How to determine the MSXML version

To determine the MSXML version that is installed on your computer, follow these steps:

1. Locate the Msxml6.dll file in the following directory:
   C:\Windows\System32
   
2. Right-click the Msxml6.dll file, and then click Properties.
   
3. Click the Details tab to see the version information.
   

I want to know the SP version of msxml6.dll file version: 6.30.17763.1339.

Looks like it is MSXML 6.0SP3 but I am not sure. Please help.

Thanks

 

What version of MsXml is used as default by MsXsl.exe

Hi Team,

We currently have MsXml versions 3.0, 4.0 and 7.0 on our Windows 2012 server. We use MsXsl.exe to process xslt files into csv in our application. MsXml version 4.0 has been flagged by our infra team that it should be removed as it is no longer in Microsoft
support. We found that MsXsl.exe we use is of version 4.0 and assume it consumes MsXml 4.0.

Could you please help us with below questions,

1. How to find what version of MsXml is called/consumed by our MsXsl.exe(4.0)
2. What is the default version of MsXml for MsXsl.exe(version 4.0)
3. How to manually force MsXsl.exe to point to a different MsXml version
4. The latest version of MsXsl.exe we could download from
   Microsoft is 3.0. What version of MsXml will it consume by default ?

Thanks and Regards,

Vino

 

MSXML Clean-up

Hello all,

I have a customer that wants to delete all older versions of MSXML (1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0) on Win10/7 workstations and just leave 6.0 (Latest). From what I see in this document we still support 3.0 and 5.0:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/269238/list-of-microsoft-xml-parser-msxml-versions



Is it recommended to remove these older versions from the workstations?
