winver and release?
Hi All,
Is it just me or ever since I upgrade to 2004, winver.exe no gives me the release? Just the build? reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" /v BuildLabEx HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion BuildLabEx REG_SZ 19041.1.amd64fre.vb_release.191206-1406 Seems now that this is the only way to get it: reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" /v ReleaseID HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion ReleaseID REG_SZ 2004 I use to be able to just ask the user to run winver to find out what was going on. You guys know an easier way to get it? Perplexed, -T |

Hi T, Maybe I don't understand the question, so others can pick up if I don't, where this is what I get from winver on two different machines: This machine says it's not yet ready for Win10 Pro v2004: o Win+R winver REPORTS: Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.836) This machine was updated to Win10 Home v2004: o Win+R winver REPORTS: Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.264) -- Maybe I didn't understand the question though, so others can help. |

As a senior engineer told me years ago, into everyone's life a little humility must fall :'( -T |

A lot of times I come across a jammed build update. Windows Nein (w10) does that "A LOT". Then I can do a manual upgrade from the web site. And I can do it all remotely. Done is about 10 times now. |
