Try System.Environment.OSVersion

Add System.Management.dll as Reference using System.Management; ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("root\\CIMV2", "SELECT * FROM Win32_SystemOperatingSystem"); foreach (ManagementObject queryObj in searcher.Get()) { Console.WriteLine("PartComponent: {0}", queryObj["PartComponent"]); }
