It depentds.

If you are talking about WiX3 vs WiX4 then you need to create your project from the project template that is designed for a specific toolkit (wix3 vs wix4). This is because v4 brings breaking changes to the API and the tools.

However, if you want to switch between v4 and v5 then you can do it in the wix4 project by calling WixTools.SetWixVersion, which instructs .NET tool manager to install and invoke a specific version of the toolset for the directory you are building your msi from.:

 WixTools.SetWixVersion(Environment.CurrentDirectory, "5.0.0");

from wixsharp.

That's some complicated answer. I want simple answer.
If I have a project created using some Wix template and later forgot or want to know which WixSharp version and Wix toolkit version is being used in the project, how and where could I get that info?
csproj, some cmd command, some installed path etc..

from wixsharp.

Sorry, indeed I misinterpreted the question. I thought you wanted to set the WiX toolset version not to read it.

Our problem is easy to solve. All WixSharp packages targeting toolset v4 and higher have the -wix4 suffix in the package name (e.g. WixSharp-wix4.WPF).

Another easy way is to check the package version:
WiX3: v1.*.*
WiX4: v2.*.*

from wixsharp.
