.NET4.5

Scenario: older 2.0 windows services installed on a server but if I try to use the newer 4.5 InstalUtil to uninstall I am getting an error.

We use an application that uses the InstalUtil service to uninstall/install windows services. Is there any way to check which framework version of InstalUtil was used to install the service? So that depending on which version was used I can pass the correct InstalUtil Path to the method
