P: SDK and Help > System Info report the wrong version of Windows on Windows 11

LEGEND ,

On Windows 11, the SDK's LrSystemInfo.summaryString() and .osVersion() report the wrong version of Windows:

 

 

"Windows 10 - Home Premium Edition (x64)"
"Windows 10 - Home Premium Edition"

 

 

This makes it difficult for a plugin to work around the Windows 11 SDK bugs.

 

Help > System Info also reports Windows 10 rather than Windows 11:

According to this Dell support article, there appear to be many places where Windows 11 reports itself as Windows 10, which Microsoft labels "as-designed" (or "feature not a bug").  One way to differentiate Windows 10 and Windows 11 is by looking at the version: 10.0.2200 and greater is Windows 11.  Unfortunately, the SDK doesn't report the version.

Greetings all,

 

Updates for the Adobe Photography Products have been released.  The October 2023 updates contain a fix for this issue. 

If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by hitting [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

 

Thank you for your patience.

Hurray! This small fix will eliminate a frequent source of confusion when people are asked to post System Info.
