[2.0.5] Win11: Env.getOSVersion() gets incorrect version (10.0) --- Java/Windows problem (fixed with Java18??) - temp-fix in 2.0.6

looks like there is an open bug for windows 11
that is expected to be fixed in java 18
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8274840

IMHO this is not really a Java bug, but a quirk in Windows 11

systeminfo shows this (language German):

Betriebssystemname: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
Betriebssystemversion: 10.0.22000 Nicht zutreffend Build 22000

So the version is actually shown as 10.0 which is reported by Java

----------------------------------------------------------------------

--- workaround ---
(based on Chetan's idea from comment #7)

windowsVersion = run("systeminfo").split("\n")[2].split(":")[1].strip()
print windowsVersion

will show on Win11: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro

(tested on Win11 and on Win10)
--------------------------------------------------------------

Env.getOSVersion() gets incorrect version for Windows 11

we are expecting version to be returned as 11 but get 10.0

OS: Win 11
Java : 14

Since I am still not able to test a Win11 system (update not yet available), I cannot test it.

But internally simply the Java SystemProperty os.version is reported.

So you might check this value on your system.
Looks like a Java problem.

yes right below is the output. however will updating java create issues on UI automation on windows 10 or it is safe to update

C:\Users\labuser\Desktop>"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-14.0.2\bin\java" Main
Name: Windows 10
Version: 10.0
Architecture: amd64

tried with java 17 but still same issue. looks like java problem

[RaiMan (raimund-hocke)]

thanks for the info.

I will track it on GitHub

[Chetan (cshamdas)]

workaround for other user who may see similar issue
get OS details from sysinfo
        cmd='powershell\nsysteminfo | findstr /B /C:\"OS Name\"'
        cmdoutput=ExecuteWinCommand(cmd)

def ExecuteWinCommand(cmdToExecute):
    #cmdToExecute='cmd\nsysteminfo | findstr /B /C:\"OS Name\"'
    returnCode = runScript(cmdToExecute)
    commandOutput = RunTime.get().getLastCommandResult()
    sleep(2)
    logInfo("Command Output:" +str(commandOutput) +"return code" +str(returnCode))

    return commandOutput

[RaiMan (raimund-hocke)]

Thanks for this idea :-)

I will implement it for Win11 on the Java level in 2.0.6, so we have a general solution until it is finally fixed in Java 18 (hopefully ;-).

@Chetan
I reduced the workaround to a one-liner, that is independant from language setting.

thanks for taking it up Raiman. appreciated
