How to Find Out The Build and Version of Windows 10 You Have On Your System

how to find out what build—and edition and version—of Windows 10 you’re running, if you really need to refer to a specific version of Windows.
Most people have referred to Windows based on the major, named version they’re using—Windows Vista, 7, 8, and so on.  Windows 10, has changed a bit. For one thing, Microsoft claims there will be no more new versions of Windows. Microsoft has also done away with service packs, instead moving to releasing two big builds each year and giving them fun names—the next big one being the Creator’s Edition  Spring, 2017. 
LET’S BEGIN
Hit Windows+I to open Settings, OR Click the search the Web and Windows on your toolbar.
In the Settings window, navigate to System > About.  Scroll down a bit and you’ll see the Edition, Version and Build you are after.

         Edition: This line tells you which edition of Windows 10 you’re using—Home, Professional, Enterprise, or Education,If you’re using Home and you’d like to upgrade to ProfessionalSwitching to Windows 10 Enterprise or Education editions will require a complete reinstall and a special key that isn’t made available to normal home Windows users

        Version: The version number gives you the best information on what version of Windows 10 you’re running. The number is based on the date of the most recent large build release and uses a YYMM format. For example, in the screenshot above, the “1511” version tells us that the version we’re running is from the 11th month (November) of 2015. Creator’s Version of April 2017, will have the version to be 1704.
        OS Build. This line shows the specific operating system build you’re running. It gives you sort of a timeline of minor build releases in between the major version number releases. This information is somewhat less important to most people than the major version numbers, but it can still help you identify exactly what you’re running
