How to find your IP address on Windows 10

Type the command "ipconfig" into the Command Prompt app and press Return, you should get output similar to the following:

Windows IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter Ethernet:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . .: broadband
IPv6 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : fs52:a81c:df85:1:c803:610d:7a5a:1217
Temporary IPv6 Address. . . . . . : fs52:a81c:df85:1:7922:e0b1:cw32:bd31
Link-local IPv6 Address. . . . . .: fe80::c803:610d:7a5a:1217%5
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.12
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

The "IPv4 Address" is the information we're looking for, and is four numbers separated by dot characters, so is "192.168.1.12" in the example above.
