Viewing Installed SharePoint 2010 Hotfixes and Service Packs

If you are currently administering SharePoint 2010, you may or may not have installed SharePoint 2010 on the server.  In these cases, at some point in time, you will probably need to figure out what exactly has been installed on the server in terms of Hotfixes/Cumulative Updates and Service Packs.

The easiest way to do this is through Central Administration.

1. Open Central Administration
2. Under the Upgrade and Migration heading, click on "Check product and patch installation status"
3. This should then display a screen with all of the currently installed Hotfixes and Service Packs
