Unlike the previous Windows version, in Windows 10, you can not find the build and version of the installed operating system by simply going through “This PC > Properties.” You will get only Windows edition, 32-bit or 64-bit, and activation status information. This is the only place where we try to find out maximum information about our operating system.
But, this time, Microsoft has decided to shift this information to another place. If you are using Android and iOS devices, you can find out the build number and version details in the ‘About’ page of the ‘Settings’ app. Similarly, Microsoft has shifted this information in the About section of settings.
