In this post, I will try to keep the Windows 10 version Numbers and Windows 10 build numbers. There was many issues about Windows 10 upgrades and quality of upgrades. There are less number of hotfixes released in the latest versions of Windows 10. So Windows 10 quality is getting stabilized with new versions.

Windows 10 version number is in year and month format. For example Windows 10 version released in the year March (3rd Month) 2019 is called Windows 10 1903.
- The first two (2) digits of Windows 10 version is taken from the year of the release. In the above example (Windows 10 1903), that is 2019.
- The last two (2) digits of Windows 10 version is taken from the month of the release. In the above example (Windows 10 1903), that is march 3rd month of the year.

- The last Windows XP build number is 3790
