TAKE NOTE: System.Version returns 10.0.22000 on Windows 11

This is not a Xojo bug, but it did catch me off-guard:

System.Version is reporting version 10.0.22000 for Windows 11. I guess that’s normal/expected (ie Microsoft’s Grand Plan), but it kinda blows if you’re recording bugs in a database and people searching that database might expecting it to be 11.0.22000.

A genuine Windows 10 might be something like: 10.0.19044.

Just sayin’…

Yeah, >= 22000 is Windows 11. At least until whatever they call Windows 12.

Guess the values for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1?

Let me tell you that all those are some sort of 6.x.x
