These Version Handling stops identify problems responsible for some of the most common application compatibility issues in Microsoft Windows operating System. Improperly detecting the version of the operating system or using hard-coded version information can cause the application to fail on newer operating systems.

Application Verifier break message

This stop is not a verifier break. This is a warning stop only. It indicates that one of the GetVersion APIs were used to check the OS version.

Probable cause

The application checks OS version and may fail if the version number is higher than expected.
