Easiest way to find my IP address on Windows?

Tech support asked for my IP address and I'm not sure if they mean the one on my network or the public one. Where do I find each on Windows 11?

Support almost always means the public one. Type what is my ip into Google or Bing and it prints it at the top of the results. The local one, the 192.168 style address, is in Settings, Network and internet, click your wifi or ethernet, Properties, scroll to IPv4 address. Or open a command prompt and type ipconfig. They only want the local one if they're trying to reach your pc inside an office network.
