If you've got Windows on your computer.

Go to the Windows 'Start' button and search for 'winver'. If you click on the search result, a pop-up window will automatically appear with information on your laptop or computer's operating system.

If you've got a Macbook.

Click the Apple logo top right on your desktop and choose 'About this Mac'. A pop-up window will automatically appear showing the version of your Mac's software.

Internet Explorer: open Internet Explorer and click the 'Extra' button top right (shown as a cogwheel). Click 'About Internet Explorer’.

Firefox: open Firefox and click the menu button at the top. The menu button has three horizontal lines. Select 'Help' and click 'About Firefox'.

Google Chrome: open Google Chrome and click the icon with the three horizontal lines top right. Select 'About Google Chrome’.

Safari: open your browser, click ‘Safari’ at the top and select ‘About Safari’.

Windows updates also automatically include updates of Internet Explorer. The same goes for Safari: each update you do on a Macbook will also upgrade Safari. If you want the latest version of Firefox or Google Chrome, the fastest, easiest way is to just reinstall the browser.
