How to find your PC's model number on Windows 10
Can't find the PC's model number sticker? No worries. You can find the information quickly in several ways — here's how on Windows 10.

On Windows 10, the computer model number information can come in handy in many situations. For instance, the model number can make it easier to find the correct hardware upgrade (such as memory, hard drive, display, and power supply). Or if you have to troubleshoot a problem or need to contact technical support. It can also come in handy to catalog the device in an inventory.
Although manufacturers usually paste a sticker or print the information on the chassis of their laptops or desktops, Windows 10 allows you to check the model number and the serial number (service tag) of your computer using the System Information app, Command Prompt, and PowerShell.
This guide will walk you through the steps to check the model number of your computer, whether it's from Dell, HP, Acer, Lenovo, or another manufacturer.
