DLL versioning

Would it be possible to set FileVersion and ProductVersion on phidget22.dll files?
The dlls don't have this set, I wonder if this could cause issues, e.g. how would Windows know if an existing phidget22.dll in a setup folder needs an update by a newer version or not?
I am trying to troubleshoot a possible issue with wrong dll being installed and the only property that I can check is "modified date" or perhaps I could do file checksum but that's tedious.
To check version I use:
returns empty strings
