Description: Having recently been looking at a post on Twitter (https://twitter.com/hipoalergeniko/status/998639103561248768) regarding other users' crashing, I double-checked my MWOClient.exe, and discovered that the May Monthly Patch has resulted in an indicated Version of "0.4.169.0" ...

Reproduction Rate: 100% -- This one's baked into MWOClient as delivered from PGI... The executable is non-altered!!!

Location: Pre-Launch @ Direct Inspection of MWOClient.exe

Steps To Reproduce:

• Find where the Game's Executable is Installed
  
• Right-Click "MWOClient.exe"
  
• Click "Properties"
  
• Click "Details"
  
• Look at "File Version"
  
• Find it reading "0.4.169.0", where it should read "1.4.169.0"

Comments: I've never seen such a bad Bug before. Obviously this is a typo, prior to delivery of the MWOClient to the Player Base. But, it does make me wonder what cascade issue that a mistyped Version Number can cause?

One more comment that I might as well add...

I've already taken the time to Verify Install with the MWO Repair Tool. No problems were found, so everything is 100% properly loaded for use.
