I'm afraid I can't help you with with the Console program.  Windows does 
like to bury Console deep in its menus, and I don't have a copy of 
Windows 10 to find it in.

Once you have a console running, all you should need to do then is type 
"idle" at the prompt.  That should open a window, which amongst other 
things will tell you the version of Python it is using.  If that fails, 
try "idle -n" instead; it may not make any difference, but it's worth a go.
