How am I to know if I am using Windows 97 or any other particular version of Windows?

Help desks and the like are always asking such questions: Why is such basic information not more-plainly displayed* by my computer?

Regards,

If you are using Windows 97 then hang onto it for it is worth a lot of money!

IIRC Windows 95/98 (which was sppsd to be 97 but became 98 due to delay) did display it on the desktop, and there is a tweak to do that with W/10, but two simple ways is to paste winver in the Run command (hold down Windows key and r key together) and hit OK. Or paste msinfo32 in the same.
