<![CDATA[[Solved] Windows 10 20H2 - New Registry Variable for Version-Number]]>In Windows 10 20H2 (Autumn 2020) you see a new text in vinver:

7ed368ae-ee6a-4c40-b762-0a2cd2f45cf9-image.png

It is the text 20H2 in the version string.
In the current version you see: Version 1909 (Build 18363.900)

This is stored in the registry value DisplayVersion under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion

Here the results from my PC (running 1909) :

So I close this issue.
@Tom Thank you for adding this,

We added the "translation" of "2009" => "20H2" long time ago, and if it already says "20H2", then we leave it as is.

So I think it is safe to close this, else I am sure you will make a new post if you see other odd changes in Microsoft versioning ;)

@Tom So I assume this issue can be closed (or is there something left you have to do from your side)?

However, they didn't update the official pages with either name, yet.
For now we will stick with the name in the ReleaseId, as that seems to be the official one.
