Log files are reporting incorrect windows version. #1303

Open TylerCode opened 1 year ago

Describe the bug When a crash log or trace log are created, the log will seemingly always report that the windows version is NT 6.2.9200 which is Windows 8. This makes troubleshooting issues more difficult and has caused some time from myself and likely others to be wasted trying to replicate issues in Windows 8 when the problem may well be occurring in 10 or 11.

Environment

No trace logs from me but here are some other issues I've gotten clarifying information from only to be corrected as to the windows version.

To Reproduce Crash on a newer system and look at the crash logs.

Additional information My guess is that a library being used doesn't know about the newer windows versions so either need to update the library or find another way of obtaining the windows version for inclusion in the log file.
