How can I tell which version of Windows I have?

I did have Windows 7 but did try to install Windows 10.  However, nothing seems 
to have changed and I didn’t notice anything when I tried to install Windows 10.

Thank you,

I decided it wasn't worth the bother.  i still prefer xp and run it on 
things that I can.  I have a seven box, but use it only when I am forced 
to do so.  If it finally dies, oh well.  I'll go to linux or something. 
Whey wasn't the upgrade program just smart enough to g on the internet 
and get the program.  This stuff is so frustrating and I'm to old to 
73

am ready to say I saved myself a ton of future frustrations, and will
camp with Win7 till the day it is gone. By that time, probably my Dell
from 2012 finally will have decided it is time to retire, and I guess my
next computer will have Win10 on it, even if I cry, scream and shout.

Only thing that crossed my mind, is this. If the upgrader so dearly
depends on that silly DLL, why did Microsoft not simply include it in
the downloaded material? They downloaded some 3GB of data to fill up my
hard drive, so the silly tiny DLL could have meant no trouble to
include. And, they don't seem to offer a download of it from their
website either, unless I have overlooked something.

Well, don't be fooled. Your next car will be delivered all brand new.
Once you have seated yourself inside, and turn the key, a message is
popping up on the dashboard, saying that it did not find itself to wear
any tires. You call on the store-keeper, and you will be told the tires
are located in the trunk. Only thing is, you find no tires in the trunk,
and however much you check, it seems the tires are already on the
wheels. but get that silly new car started?!!! Oh, no Sir; We are just
delivering the Microsoft car for you. Hahaha, and funny smiles.

I am not in the US, and don't know if Microsoft Accessibility Desk will
be available for abroad customers. So if anyone had the urge to call
them, and could give some clue, fine enough and greatly appreciated.
Otherwise, I am just going to continue like in the "old Days".

Here's a line of text which is a command.

If you select the whole line of text, copy it to the clipboard, you can

You open the Run dialog box by holding down the Windows key and pressing the

Pat,

Although you would probably know if the upgrade worked, it is worth noting 
that the version number shown probably won't clearly say "version 10".  In 
my case, it says "Version 1703."  However, the dialog box that I get does 
refer to Windows 10 in the text portion.  If you did try to install it 
before, you might be able to start the install again without a charge since 
some of the components are probably already downloaded.  One of the most 
common reasons for an upgrade not to work is that Windows detected software 
that needs to be uninstalled first.  This often includes old versions of 
screen readers like JAWS and Window-eyes.  Whether you could restart the 
upgrade without a charge probably depends upon how far you got when you 
tried it last time.  You might be able to get the Microsoft Disability 
Answer Desk to help you sort this out at

800-936-5900

Or go to their website at

Thank you, Rod.

Apparently, getting the free copy of Windows 10 didn't work ... sometime in

Hi Patricia,

Here's a line of text which is a command.
Winver | more
If you select the whole line of text, copy it to the clipboard, you can
paste it into the Run dialog box.
You open the Run dialog box by holding down the Windows key and pressing the
letter R.
Once you paste the command into the Run dialog box, you would press Enter to
execute the command.
Then, you would read the whole Window using Ctrl-Shift-W.
Once you have heard the version information, press Enter to activate the Ok
button to close the dialog.

Best,

Rod

Good afternoon,

How can I tell which version of Windows I have?

I did have Windows 7 but did try to install Windows 10.  However, nothing
seems to have changed and I didn’t notice anything when I tried to install
Windows 10.

Thank you,


Trish

Mine didn't work either.  I kept getting some error such and such
