I have searched everywhere but cannot find how to tell which version of Windows 8 I am running. I have the system properties on the screen but it just says "Windows 8," nothing else.

Is this the standard edition?

I suspect it is the standard edition.

I have Pro and it shows as Windows 8 Pro as per the image below.

Windows 8 Pro

Alternatively, you can try the following from the command line:

systeminfo | findstr /B /C:"OS Name" /C:"OS Version"

Windows version from command line

It will tell you on the System properties screen (WinBreak). I'm running Win 8 Pro and it reflects that:

If yours just says "Windows 8" then I would say you are running the standard version.
