'Pers' is used for the edition string if the "Edition" entry is missing from the registry key HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Embarcadero\BDS\18.0.

This means your Delphi installation registry key has missing entries. Did you use the Delphi ISO installer or the new Get-It web installer? If it is the web installer, you could create a quality central bug report for the missing registry value. (Who knows what else is missing).

Oh? This was a surprise.. I installed Delphi with Windows 32/64 personalities using the web installer. No complaints from the program nor the platform and extensions manager, nor do any of them behaved erratically.

In the About box:
Product License Status: Registered
Professional

Maybe it still is a reason for a qc report, but I don't really know
what to report, considering everything seem to work as expected.

This is in the root of that registry key, which looks complete but
with a "Compatible=-1", "RegMergeLevel=0", and no Edition setting.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\18.0]
"App"="c:\\program files (x86)\\embarcadero\\studio\\18.0\\bin\\bds.exe"

I just added the missing Edition value, so I JVCL displays it as expected, although Delphi itself don't seem to care.

I changed the default in the installer to be empty instead of using a wrong edition.
