It is a real screenshot of the program I attached in my post and it is just a really basic NSIS script. The screenshot is from Windows 8 but you should get the same result on any Windows version >= Win2000 AFAIK. I did not modify your plug-in in any way but I did some hex editing on the NSIS stub. If you add a IMAGE_LOAD_CONFIG_DIRECTORY32 entry you should be able to change the service pack number as well...

Besides: Is StdUtils still able to extract the real OS version even if Microsoft now also fakes file version information?

Latest StdUtils version should be able, yes. Provided that you don't mess with the PE header 😉
