How do I determine which version of windows os is installed on the computer that my application is running on.

I need to determine which version of windows os in on the computer running my application to make some minor adjustments to a subvi.  Is there a programmatic way to determine this using Labview.

Place a property node (App control palette) on the diagram and select the Operating System>>Version Number property.

For posterity, I found it useful to map the version number to the actual name of a Windows version. That information is here:

Operating System Version

Or, use the Application property node Application>OS>Detailed Name.  Although I can't say anything about its output on other-than-Windows OSes.

By the way, I think you win the "reviving old thread" award today

See attached VI.  depending on your admin rights you might have to add command to run as admin.  Tested on both Windows 10 and Windows 7 and works.

shrink down to this. due to lacalization of windows that change, for example, "system type" in "Tipo sistema: x64-based PC" in Italian.

btw it works. thanks.
