Kindly advise.

    Hey,

    Please open PowerShell and use the Get-ItemProperty Cmdlet, to check server’s properties.

    Get-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" | Select ProductName, ReleaseId, InstallationType, CurrentMajorVersionNumber,CurrentMinorVersionNumber,CurrentBuild
