Q

You used the winver.exe and it reported Windows 10 Version 1703 (OS Build 15063.145). What is the current data on the last update?

63rd day of 2015

145th day of 2015

march of 2017

march of 2017

The date code of the edition is yymm, so 1703 is March of 2017. The 63rd day of 2015 and the 145th day of 2015 are incorrect answers, because the build number is the number of builds of Windows 10. The build number does translate to a version of Windows, but that information is in the date code and does not need to be looked up
