Windows 10 ABOUT settings sheet does not show version, just build number
Hi,
I had some issues upgrading to Windows 10 2004 from from 1909. After a few hours of troubleshooting the upgrade and knowing I have regular backups of everything, I blew away the partitions for Windows 10 1909 and reinstalled Windows 2004 using USB install media.
Everything seems fine. Everything is working as expected.
Today I went to the about page of settings and look at the Windows Specifications. It reads as follows:
Edition: Windows 10 Pro
Version:
Installed on: 2020-8-31
OS build: 19041.450
Experience: Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.31.0
I have attached a screenshot of the About settings page.
I wonder why that is and if it is something that went wrong for my installation or just another bug to be fixed at a later date?

- I had the same problem when I turned on the new Start menu using a key in the registry
@Kapil Arya
Thanks for the responses guys.
The issue was present directly after the final reboot of a new installation. I hadn't installed anything or change anything on the system at the point I noticed it. I new I had version 2004 because when I right clicked the "This PC" icon on desktop and selected properties the Metro based system settings tab appeared focused on the "About" information sheet/tab whatever you call it.
I did not edit the registry.
It also displays the same behavior when using ver or winver on the command line.
As follows: ver -
C:\Users\yodamin>ver
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19041.450]
Winver -
