DtWinVer

Being able to provide you with details on the OS the application that calls it is running on, DtWinVer is a software utility whose purpose is to work as a C++ class.

What users may also want to know is that DtWinVer is capable of handling both emulated and underlying OSes. An extensive list of OS versions that can be detected by DtWinVer is available on the developer’s website for further analysis and includes everything from DOS to Windows 10 Redstone 3, Hololens, and Windows 10 Mobile.

In order to put DtWinVer’s abilities to the test, a ZIP archive packing the source code for the detection routine is put at your disposal along with various project files you can turn to in order to create a dummy program for the following OSes: DOS, Win16, Win32, Win x64, and last but not least, Windows CE.

Regarding the circumstances under which you may want to resort to DTWinVer, it is worth pointing out that it can be of use when you are running an emulated DOS v.5.50 on Windows 2000 Server Build 2195 Service Pack 2, Windows for Workgroups on DOS v.6.22, an app on Windows NT Terminal Server, when you are working on an underlying OS of Windows 10 Pro Build 9841, and in many other situations.
