What is the RC2 filename please?

I am such an idiot, I never named my beta discs and I have a number of them.
Now when I need to reinstall RC2 I cannot remember which is which.
Can anyone tell me the disc name of RC2? I.e. the disc label. Or is there
any other way of telling which is which?
It would not be so much of a problem if MS had not put RC1 in the RC2 eula,
I would have been able to easily tell.

x86 RC2 is labelled LRMCFRE_EN_DVD which is rather vague.

Yep I have that one here. I thought that was RC1 or beta2 versions. Should
be filesize approx 2.5Gb is that right?

Is it possible two different versions were named the same?

Actually I can't find it :-(
Got two versions of LR1CFRE_EN_DVD with different filesizes. Plus an earlier
one.
I installed RC1 this afternoon as a stop gap, but cannot update it as they
took away windows update for it, so I guess I am buggered.

Re: What is the RC2 filename please?

I'm just guessing, but LR1CFRE_EN_DVD is probably RC1. RC2 is definitely
LRMCFRE_EN_DVD. I think that both the x86 and x64 versions have the same
label, x64 being over 3GB in size as compared to 2.5GB for x86.
(Beta 2 is LB2CFRE_EN_DVD).

Well I found that disc and just did a full clean install and its RC1.
Must have had two with same name?

Re: What is the RC2 filename please?

6.0.5728.16387 is what you're posting with. Is this the one you've just
installed? 5728 was post-RC1, but pre-RC2!! Perhaps it had the same label
as RC2.
