What do your mean by "checking my Network"? What were you doing? There is no such thing as windows 6, where did you get that message?

Windows Vista was considered release 6 (version number NT 6.0). Win10 is version NT 10.0. OP might be using an old program that only checks the first digit of the Windows version, which makes the program think that he is on Windows 1.0.
This is the reason "Windows 9" was skipped. Many old programs that check the Windows version number only check the first digit. So Windows 9 was getting confused with Windows 95/98 when using old legacy programs.

Sounds like your using Cox Network scanning tool. It's broke, don't use it. What were you trying to do with it? There are better/easier ways.
