I think I just installed Service Pack 2 for Office 2010 but when I go to File-> Help it doesn’t show that Outlook is at Service Pack 2 level. It only shows version number 14.0.7012.1000.

Does this number indicate that Service Pack 2 is installed?

When you go to Help-> About in Outlook and you see a version number of 14.0.7012.1000 (or higher), it indeed means that you have Office 2010 Service Pack 2 installed.

If it is lower than that but higher than 14.0.6023.1000, then it means you have Service Pack 1 installed.

Anything below that means that you haven’t applied any Service Pack yet.

But this is not working anymore in Exchange 2010, 2013 and 2016. You need more to know a little more of Powershell. Lets say you are using Exchange 2010 (this is version V14).

Now you just need to compare the results with the Outlook version in the following table.
