2. Click on the link for **System Settings**
3. Click the link for **Manage Servers in This Farm**
4. Look at the **Configuration Database Version** field

- There is a view button in the top left that will change the list from the farm to individual servers in the farm
- At the top of the page a link labeled **Click here for the latest information on available updates for SharePoint 2010 Products** will take you to a list of all cumulative updates for SharePoint.
- Any Hotfix will show under the product it applied to (my screenshot shows an RTM server with no hotfix installed)

**Method 3:** PowerShell

1. Open **SharePoint 2010 Management Shell** from the Start menu (right-click and select **Run as Administrator**)
2. Type  **(get-spfarm).buildversion**
