How to find the Windows version from the PowerShell command line

Question

How do I find which Windows version I\'m using?

I\'m using PowerShell 2.0 and tried:

PS C:\\> ver
The term \'ver\' is not recognized as the name o         


        

Answer 1

Since PowerShell 5:

Get-ComputerInfo
Get-ComputerInfo -Property Windows*

I think this command pretty much tries the 1001 different ways so far discovered to collect system information...
