To determine which version of Microsoft Windows you are running:

  1. On the taskbar at the bottom of your screen, click Start, and then click Run.
  2. In the Run dialog box, type: winver.

    NOTE: If you're using Windows Vista, type winverinto the Search box.

  3. Click OK.

    A dialog box displays the version that you are running.

however if you are asking where is your operating system actually "stored" then it is stored on your Hard Drive. mostly at the end of your hard drive to prevent dual booting. however there are techniques to get around this. such as a good defrag tool or reformatting windows and allocating it to a smaller partition

a couple things i almost forgot to include, if you have a docker(a thing at the bottom of your screen that gets bigger as you run your mouse over it) you have a probably have a mac, if you have two toolbars one at the top one at the bottom you probably have Linux
