Winver.exe is an executable program in all versions of windows including the very old Windows XP.  This command will give you info on your operating system version and edition. 
From the start menu,  type winver.exe and clic Enter.  In Windows 8,  start typing winver.exe on the start screen and run the command.  In Windows 10, you can use Cortana's search field to enter winver and then, either press Enter on your keyboard, or click or tap on the winver search result.
A small window called ,About Windows' will appear  showing you the version ad edition of your operating system.
