how do i find out which version of windows i have

To find out which version of Windows you have, you can use a couple of very quick built‑in methods.

Easiest method: Settings

  • Press Windows key + I to open Settings.
  • Go to System → About.
  • Under Windows specifications , you will see:
    • Edition (e.g., Windows 10 Home, Windows 11 Pro)
    • Version (e.g., 22H2)
    • OS build number.

This is enough for most people to know exactly which Windows version they are running.

Classic method: winver box

  • Press Windows key + R to open the Run box.
  • Type winver and press Enter.
  • A small window will show:
    • The Windows name (like Windows 10, Windows 11).
    • The version and build number.

This method works on almost all modern Windows versions and is very fast.

Extra detail: System Information (advanced)

If you want more technical details:

  • Press Windows key + R , type msinfo32, and press Enter.
  • In System Information , look for:
    • OS Name
    • Version and Build.
