To get the version of running VM (Virtual Machine) in Java, we use the getProperties() method, which is defined in System class, while calling the method, we need to pass the property name to get the version of running Java VM.

The property to get the running Java VM version: "java.vm.version"

The method call is: System.getProperties("java.vm.version");

// getProperties() method of System Class

import java.lang.*;
import java.util.Properties;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        vm_version = System.getProperty("java.vm.version");
        System.out.println("Running Java vm version is: " + vm_version);
    }
}
