 Somehow you have managed to get the contents of the below folder to be deleted.
C:\IBM\WCDE_ENT70\properties\version\.. . 

This is where websphere commerce will refer to inorder to figure out the current status of the product installation. 

Details of the current version installed are contained in the NIFStack .

C:\IBM\WCDE_ENT70\properties\version\update\backup\NIFStack.xml 

It containes info on the apars installed , current Fixpack level , feature pack level , history , product ids etc.

Solution:
Try to copy the entire properties folder from a colleague who has installed the product with similar settings and is at the same fixpack and featurepack level as you are on. I am not sure there is another way.

Do not proceed with apars installation or any other upgradation until you fix this NIFStack.xml issue.

    At a time when affordable homes seller are in short supply, the houses in Cobridge — or ‘Poundland’, as locals have dubbed it — represent a barely believable bargain.

    CHRONIC BACK PAIN
    Not all pain that persists will turn into chronic pain.
    Different people experience chronic pain very differently.
    Likewise, the effectiveness of a particular treatment for
    chronic pain will often differ from person to person.
    For example, a particular medication or injection
    for a herniated disc may provide effective pain relief
    for some people but not for others.

    One problem is that not all patients with similar conditions
    develop chronic pain, and it is not understood why some people
    will develop
    CHRONIC PAIN. Also, a condition that appears
    relatively minor can lead to severe chronic pain,
    and a serious condition can be barely painful at all.

    What is my ip
    An ip address is a fascinating product of modern computer technology designed to allow one computer
    (or other digital device) to communicate with another via the Internet. whatmyip addresses allow the location
    of literally billions of digital devices that are connected to the Internet to be pinpointed and differentiated
    from other devices. In the same sense that someone needs your mailing address to send you a letter,
    a remote computer needs my ip location to communicate with your computer.

    self-contained enclosures that prevent the water vapour from escaping into the rest of the room, avoiding damage to drywall, paint, or wallpaper. steam shower combine the functionality of a standard steam room with many additional features including a shower, FM radio and hydrotherapy. steam showers are available in a variety of materials, including tile, acrylic, fiberglass, glass, stone, and wood.
