Very simple Windows executable that outputs basic information about the Operating System.
This is how a proper ver
command should work.
Pick a proper version from bin
directory and place it on shared dive or thumb drive,
or any place you access from PC you wish to query.
Or include it in your deployment tools to have it on all your machines.
On my computer I see:

shows just this bland:
