Windows version in c# [duplicate]

• Detect Windows version in .net 13 answers

I want to know which Windows version the PC has.. in C# Framework 3.5

I have tried using

OperatingSystem os = Environment.OSVersion;

Version ver = os.Version;

But the result is

Plataform: WIN32NT

version 6.2.9200

Version minor: 2

Version Major: 6

The problem is that I have "Windows 8 Pro"...

How can I detect it?

Thanks

You will have to match version numbers with the appropriate string value yourself.

Here is a list of the most recent Windows OS and their corresponding version number:

• Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview - 10.0*
• Windows 10 - 10.0*
• Windows 8.1 - 6.3*
• Windows Server 2012 R2 - 6.3*
• Windows 8 - 6.2
• Windows Server 2012 - 6.2
• Windows 7 - 6.1
• Windows Server 2008 R2 - 6.1
• Windows Server 2008 - 6.0
• Windows Vista - 6.0
• Windows Server 2003 R2 - 5.2
• Windows Server 2003 - 5.2
• Windows XP 64-Bit Edition - 5.2
• Windows XP - 5.1
• Windows 2000 - 5.0

*For applications that have been manifested for Windows 8.1 or 10. Applications not manifested for 8.1 / 10 will return the Windows 8 OS version value (6.2).

Here's the source.

Also, from the same source:

Identifying the current operating system is usually not the best way to determine whether a particular operating system feature is present. This is because the operating system may have had new features added in a redistributable DLL. Rather than using the Version API Helper functions to determine the operating system platform or version number, test for the presence of the feature itself.

In my scenario I needed my application to capture computer info for possible bug-reports and statistics.

I did not find the solutions where an application manifest had to be added satisfactory. Most of the suggestions I found while googling this suggested just that, unfortunately.

Thing is, when using a manifest, each OS version has to be added manually to it in order for that particular OS version to be able to report itself at runtime.

In other words, this becomes a race condition: A user of my app may very well be using a version of my app that pre-dates the OS in use. I would have to upgrade the app immediately when a new OS version was launched by Microsoft. I would also have to force the users to upgrade the app at the same time as they updated the OS.

In other words, not very feasible.

After browsing through the options I found some references (surprisingly few compared to the app manifest) that instead suggested using registry lookups.

My (chopped down) ComputerInfo class with only WinMajorVersion, WinMinorVersion and IsServer properties looks like this:

using Microsoft.Win32;

namespace Inspection
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Static class that adds convenient methods for getting information on the running computers basic hardware and os setup.
    /// </summary>
    public static class ComputerInfo
    {
        /// <summary>
        ///     Returns the Windows major version number for this computer.
        /// </summary>
        public static uint WinMajorVersion
        {
            get
            {
                dynamic major;
                // The 'CurrentMajorVersionNumber' string value in the CurrentVersion key is new for Windows 10, 
                // and will most likely (hopefully) be there for some time before MS decides to change this - again...
                if (TryGeRegistryKey(@"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion", "CurrentMajorVersionNumber", out major))
                {
                    return (uint) major;
                }

                // When the 'CurrentMajorVersionNumber' value is not present we fallback to reading the previous key used for this: 'CurrentVersion'
                dynamic version;
                if (!TryGeRegistryKey(@"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion", "CurrentVersion", out version))
                    return 0;

                var versionParts = ((string) version).Split('.');
                if (versionParts.Length != 2) return 0;
                uint majorAsUInt;
                return uint.TryParse(versionParts[0], out majorAsUInt) ? majorAsUInt : 0;
            }
        }

        /// <summary>

                // and will most likely (hopefully) be there for some time before MS decides to change this - again...
                if (TryGeRegistryKey(@"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion", "CurrentMinorVersionNumber",
                    out minor))
                {
                    return (uint) minor;

                return uint.TryParse(versionParts[1], out minorAsUInt) ? minorAsUInt : 0;
            }
        }

            {

                    out installationType))
                {
                    return (uint) (installationType.Equals("Client") ? 0 : 1);
                }

                return 0;

I released the OsInfo nuget to easily compare Windows versions.

bool win8OrLess = Environment.OSVersion.IsLessThanOrEqualTo(OsVersion.Win8);
bool winXp = Environment.OSVersion.IsEqualTo(OsVersion.WinXP);
int? servicePack = Environment.OSVersion.GetServicePackVersion();
bool is64bit = Environment.OSVersion.Is64Bit(); // Already covered in .NET 4.5+

Try this:

using System.Management;

private string fnGetFriendlyName()
{
    var name = (from x in new ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT Caption FROM Win32_OperatingSystem").Get().OfType<ManagementObject>()
                select x.GetPropertyValue("Caption")).FirstOrDefault();
    return name != null ? name.ToString() : "Unknown";
}
