To find the operating system in which the java application is running we can just get the system property "os.name"
System.getProperty("os.name");
Example:
        String os = System.getProperty("os.name");
To check if it is windows, we can just check whether the name starts with WIN as
        if ( os != null && os.startsWith(WIN_ID))
            return true;
