My friend has for months now been in and out of the hospital, or out of town, and so away from her computer (a Lenovo laptop, with a large second monitor) for months at a time. I do however now have more information about that situation. Please note that all those comments, and everything in my first post after the first line, refer to my own desktop computer (Dell XPS 8700, in California) and not to my friend's Lenovo laptop computer in Austria. The Version and Build numbers given there are correct. The "winver" command does not display an installation date. It is the installation date shown in "Windows Specification" at Settings/System/About that is wildly incorrect, referring to a long-past time at which neither 21H1 nor 20H2 yet existed.
Yes, the installation dates given in the Windows Update/Update History are in US format, and they are correct. Įdited by Chris Cosgrove, 22 June 2021 - 04:36 AM. "All Aboard for Mars" and you land on Europa instead, I think there might be repercussions. one wouldn't want to discover an anomaly of this kind in the middle of let's say the computation of a manned spaceship trajectory.
Windows is so huge and so polymorphic it's astonishing there are not more such wonders. In one sense of course this is not exactly the end of the world. If anyone has a rational explanation for this, I'd love to hear it! Windows being what it is, I suspect there may be several other ways of finding what one would expect to be the same information. I don't think either 21H1 or 20H2 were available in July 2020Īnd no update of any kind is recorded in Windows Update History as installed on 7/21/20 (I happen to know those dates are correct, because I wrote them down at the time) Then on the same computer I go to Windows Update/Update History and findįeature Update to Version 21H1 - successfully installed on 5/20/21įeature Update to Version 20H2 - successfully installed on 11/13/20 Select Settings, then System, then About, check.
For some reason she couldn't make "winver" work, so I went looking for other sources of data.
I was trying to help a friend in Austria sort out the status of her system.
