Is there a tool to modify the file version resource in kernel mode drivers?

For bug tracking purposes, I want to fix the product version on the level of the last change, while file version should reflect the version number of the release.

To avoid recompilation I would like to have a tool to modify the file version w/o breaking the driver.

Does anybody know such a tool

    We don't know of such a tool. Using this type of tool would invalidate the digital signature anyways. If you want to associate bugs with specific versions, update the version of the file in the .rc file before compiling it, not after. A proper build system would update this revision number on a regular basis (at a minimum immediately prior to and after shipping a version).
