Hi folks,
Hey guys, if you want to know which operating system you are using & its version, there are 2 ways to do it as follows;
- Using Command Prompt
- Using Programming
1. Using Command Prompt
- Go to Start Menu
- Go to Run
- Type cmd & press Enter/return. Command Prompt will open.
- Type ver & press Enter/return, you will get the Name of your OS & its Version that you are using
Here I have used, ver command one of the DOS commands which returns Name of Operating System and its version.
2. Using Programming
Here we are using a Java Program to find the operating system you are using & its version :
package com.si.java.utility.os;
/**

*/
public class MyOS
{
public static void main(String[] arg)
{
//To find the name of operating system.
String myOS = System.getProperty("os.name");
System.out.println("Operating System : " + myOS);
//To find the version of operating system.
String myOSVersion = System.getProperty("os.version");
System.out.println("Version : " + myOSVersion);
}
}
So, what are you waiting for?
Use it to create various system utilities & have fun.
