The Windows operating system is by far the most widely used operating system in the world. In our country, this operating system is also installed on most personal computers. But not all users are aware of which version of Windows is installed on their computer.
In principle, this is quite understandable - in our daily activities we are far from always faced with the need to use this kind of information, we simply do not need it. But sometimes, for example, when contacting technical support, even a novice user may need information about the version of the Windows operating system installed on the computer. At the same time, not everyone can tell how to find out which Windows is installed in each specific case.
In order to find out the version of the operating system installed on your computer, you need to follow a sequence of fairly simple steps. If you are using the Windows 7 operating system, go to the "Start" menu (it is located in the lower left corner of the screen), select "Computer" there and click on it with the right mouse button. Then, in the window that opens, select the "Properties" item. There, in the "System" window, you will see the "Windows Edition" block - it will contain all the necessary information about the operating system version, as well as the version of the installed service pack and the type of system (32-bit or 64-bit). If you are using the Windows Vista operating system or the Windows XP operating system, you can also find out the basic properties and version of the system by using the "Start" menu. However, in this case, the "Computer" menu item will be named "My Computer". This minimal difference in menu item names does not in any way affect the overall functionality of this menu section. Here you can also see all information about the operating system version and service pack.
