Steps to Accomplish

Option 1 - MicroStation V8i

In MicroStation V8i (Select Series) open the Help > About MicroStation dialog
You will find the MicroStation version number (i.e. 08.11.09.829)

If, for some reason, you are not able to open MicroStation, right click on MicroStation's shortcut, either on your desktop or in the Start-menu and select "Properties":

In the "Properties->Shortcut->Target" field you will find the path to "ustation.exe". Click the button 'Open file location'.
Windows Explorer will open and "ustation.exe" will be highlighted. Right click on "ustation.exe" and select Properties. In the Properties dialog, select the "Details" tab, there you can see the Product Version and release number (i.e. 08.11.09.459).
