There is a place in the Control Panel where you can specify your OS, languages, etc., so that they show below your moniker. This helps with the types of questions that hinge on those factors. While .bat is generally an indication of Windows, the 'batch file' far predates the existence of the PC, so the reference is not a given. To be even more irritatingly pedantic, DOS is an acronym for "disk operating system", and is not a synonym for MS-DOS or the more modern command processor that Windows now uses.
