ie:

navigator.userAgentData.getHighEntropyValues(["platformVersion"])
 .then(ua => {
   if (navigator.userAgentData.platform === "Windows") {
     const majorPlatformVersion = parseInt(ua.platformVersion.split('.')[0]);
     if (majorPlatformVersion >= 13) {
       console.log("Windows 11 or later");
      }
      else if (majorPlatformVersion > 0) {
        console.log("Windows 10");
      }
      else {
        console.log("Before Windows 10");
      }
   }
   else {
     console.log("Not running on Windows");
   }
 });
