102.Operating System Information

102.1 Overview

The OsScan class provides a unified API for retrieving detailed information about the current operating system and runtime environment. It abstracts low-level platform queries into a single structured model that can be used for diagnostics, logging, system profiling, and environment inspection.

---

102.2 Creating an OS Scanner

To retrieve system information, create an instance of OsScan.

var scanner = new OsScan();

---

102.3 Retrieving OS Information

Use the OsExtract() method to obtain a complete snapshot of the current system environment.

var os = new OsScan().OsExtract();

Console.WriteLine(os.OSName);

All values are retrieved using safe system calls with fallback handling where necessary. Notes Values are snapshot-based and may change during runtime. On some restricted environments (e.g., containers or sandboxed systems), certain properties may return default or limited values. This module is designed for diagnostics and environment awareness, not for system modification.
