ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ask-ubuntu discussion about wrestool and exiftool https://askubuntu.com/a/717855

I'm on linux, but sometimes I have to connect to a windows box to check some in house developed command line tools. On windows I can easily check the version of the dll/executables in the folder.

While researching for this issue I found the wrestool/exiftool workaround when I'm on linux

exiftool -FileVersion -ProductVersion putty.exe
