On Windows OS, if the system language is not English, type systeminfo in CMD would get "OS" with native chars instead of "OS Name". Change the regex statement to match "OS" with "Microsoft", so that winVersionText function can return useful version info on non-English system as well as English system.
Alternate Designs
None.
Benefits
Get useful system version on non-English Windows OS instead of "Unknown Windows version".
I think we might be better off just using os.release() as it gives a more complete version number (knowing it is Pro isn't much use to us). This would also work on non-English locales.
Calling systeminfo can be very slow. On one of the computers I use it can take up to 60 seconds to complete being stuck at loading hotfix information for a very long time, no idea why it is so slow.
As the primary Windows guy I've not once found Microsoft Windows 10 Pro more useful than 10.0.15063. The latter provides a lot more info and the former only potentially has value in the "Pro" designation - but I don't think we've ever had a bug in Atom that was in any way related to the edition of Windows. It's not even in our build and test matrix.
