Get OS in c++ win32 for all versions of win?

Im am super new to C++ and am trying to figure out how to return the OSName (win 7, 8, vista, xp, etc) as a string. I tried searching and MSDN was no help, only confused me further.
All help appreciated.
it seems using predefined headers is the easiest way

What makes you think MSDN will give you the answers? Microsoft's implementation on MSDN is not standard C++, and thus you should be looking for a portable solution.

Does someone know how to open an MFC application to get the source-code?
(I want to know how it works)
MFC is compiled from C++ source, so it can't be recovered. You can use a decompiler on it, but the source you get back won't be particularly instructive.
There's a good related question on debugging, disassembling and decompiling you can check for more links.

Are there any cross platform crash reporters for C++ besides google-break pad? I have seen google-breakpad but it has very very limited documentation, and I have nothing seen very much mentioned here, google or other source websites
Have a look at BugTrap which might help you.
