How do I identify my operating system?

How to Determine Your Operating System

  1. Click the Start or Windows button (usually in the lower-left corner of your computer screen).
  2. Click Settings.
  3. Click About (usually in the lower left of the screen). The resulting screen shows the edition of Windows.

How do I know what operating system I have on my iPhone?

On an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you find the version number in Settings > General > About. Scan down the screen until you see the Version line, which tells you both the version of iOS and the build number.
