• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

RFA - OS Version - Identifier String - Batch file

Hi Folks

As part of an upgrade to The ODG Project sceneries
I've a requirement to identify the user's OS.

This is to allow conditional processing in a batch file
which will write a directory listing,
both pre & post applying any updates.



I've attached a batch file _OS_Version.bat
which, when run,
writes a text file _OS_Version_Log.txt,
containing the OS version string, (to the same folder).

If anyone could please run this bat file,
& post their OS's version string
it would be very much appreciated.



I'm particularly after identifying
those strings returned by all XP and newer OS's, (all versions).

e.g.
Output for my version of XP -
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]



Yes, I've searched MSDN, and Googled,
but not found anything recent and definitive.



Many thanks
ATB

Excellent as those were unexpected identifier formats.

Many thanks

On the slightly older Windows 7 I am still running I get:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7100]

But I guess you can see the pattern already :).
