<strong>System<\/strong> &gt; <strong>About<\/strong> and check the <strong>&#8220;Windows specifications&#8221;<\/strong> section. It shows the version, OS build, and edition, such as Home or Pro. You can also type <code>winver<\/code> in Start or Run to quickly view the version and build number in a pop-up window.<\/p>\n<h4>What&#8217;s the difference between the Windows 11 version and the OS build number?<\/h4>\n<p>The version, such as 25H2, identifies the annual feature update release. The OS build number, such as 26200.8037, specifies the exact update level installed on the device. The numbers after the period increase with each cumulative update released during the lifecycle of that version.<\/p>\n<h4>Is checking the Windows 11 version from Settings better than using winver?<\/h4>\n<p>Settings provides more detailed information, including edition, version, and full build number in one place. The <code>winver<\/code> command is faster and ideal for a quick check, but it shows fewer details. Both methods report the same version information from the system.<\/p>\n<h4>How do I check my Windows 11 version using Command Prompt?<\/h4>\n<p>Open Command Prompt and type ver to see the basic version. For detailed information, use <code>systeminfo | findstr \/B \/C:\"OS Name\" \/C:\"OS Version\"<\/code>. These commands display the OS name and build number, which you can match to the corresponding Windows 11 version.<\/p>\n<h4>How can I find my Windows 11 version in PowerShell?<\/h4>\n<p>Open PowerShell and run <code>Get-ComputerInfo | Select OsName, OSDisplayVersion, OsBuildNumber<\/code>. This command returns the operating system name, display version, and build number. It is useful for scripting, remote management, and confirming version details across multiple devices.<\/p>\n<h4>Why doesn&#8217;t Windows 11 show the marketing name of the version?<\/h4>\n<p>Windows 11 does not display marketing labels because Microsoft keeps the product name consistent across releases. Instead, it uses version identifiers such as 25H2 to distinguish feature updates. This approach simplifies branding but can make it harder to identify the exact release without checking system details.<\/p>\n<h4>How do I tell if my Windows 11 version is still supported?<\/h4>\n<p>To determine support status, compare your version (for example, 23H2 or 25H2) with <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/windows-11-lifecycle\/\">Microsoft&#8217;s official lifecycle<\/a> information. Each feature update receives security updates for a limited period, typically 24 months for Home and Pro editions. If your version is past its end-of-service date, you must upgrade to continue receiving updates.<\/p>\n<h4>Can I check my Windows 11 version without logging in?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes, in some scenarios. From the sign-in screen, press <strong>&#8220;Shift + Restart&#8221;<\/strong> to enter <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/access-advanced-startup-options-windows-11\/\">Windows Recovery Environment<\/a>, then open Command Prompt and run <code>ver<\/code>. Alternatively, if you have installation media, you can access recovery tools to check build information. However, full version details typically require signing into the system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Find out the version of Windows 11 installed on your computer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":185762,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[95,19,2715,2576],"class_list":["post-139761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-windows","tag-difficulty-level-beginner","tag-how-to","tag-windows-11","tag-windows-help"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>4 Quick ways to check version on Windows 11 - Pureinfotech<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"To check the version of Windows 11, use the About settings, winver, Command Prompt, and PowerShell.
