I want version my DLL with every build and release for that i have used powershell script as :

 foreach ($file in $files) {
    $filecontent = Get-Content($file)
    echo "updating version for $file"
    attrib $file -r
    $filecontent | %{$_ -replace 'AssemblyVersion\("[0-9]+?(\.([0-9]+?|\*)){1,3}"\)', $('AssemblyVersion("' + $NewVersion + '")') } |    
                  %{$_ -replace 'AssemblyFileVersion\("[0-9]+?(\.([0-9]+?|\*)){1,3}"\)', $('AssemblyFileVersion("' + $NewVersion + '")') } | 
                  %{$_ -replace '<AssemblyVersion>[0-9]+?(\.([0-9]+?|\*)){1,3}<', $('<AssemblyVersion>' + $NewVersion + '<') } | 
                  %{$_ -replace '<FileVersion>[0-9]+?(\.([0-9]+?|\*)){1,3}<', $('<FileVersion>' + $NewVersion + '<') } |
                  %{$_ -replace '<Version>[0-9]+?(\.([0-9]+?|\*)){1,3}<', $('<Version>' + $NewVersion + '<') } | Out-File -Encoding "UTF8" $file

But earlier i was using azure/on premise build server on which versioning was working properly.

No i switched to hosted agent, Powershell script task runs successfult but version of dll remains as 1.0.0.

Any solution to get this work on Hotsed agent as well ?

the files paths are correct? – Shayki Abramczyk May 07 '19 at 10:47
yes file path are correct – S2K May 07 '19 at 10:57
you need to start debugging the script by add `Write-Host $variable` in each line and check exactly what the script does. – Shayki Abramczyk May 07 '19 at 11:23
but it works when i select azure vm agent or on premises agent – S2K May 07 '19 at 11:50
but it doesn't work in Hosted agent, so don't you ant to check why? – Shayki Abramczyk May 07 '19 at 11:52
yes but i wnt be able to login to hosted agent – S2K May 07 '19 at 12:01
I'm sorry, I don't understand. – Shayki Abramczyk May 07 '19 at 12:03
what i meant to say is, i cant login to hosted agent where artifacts are built, rather i need download it on local. – S2K May 07 '19 at 12:08
what the problem to debug the script? maybe in hosted agent the behavior is different because another values. – Shayki Abramczyk May 07 '19 at 12:09
ok,,,,just wanted to make sure it should be admin privilege issue – S2K May 07 '19 at 12:12
Can you use a market task for this? See [this](https://github.com/colindembovsky/cols-agent-tasks/tree/master/Tasks/VersionAssemblies) – Stinky Towel May 08 '19 at 17:23
