Encryption & Sandbox options is one of the big things for me when it comes to Home vs Pro I recently got a upgrade key to upgrade my Windows 10 Home keep up the good work my man.
is that how when I was on the pro version I had encrypted DNS but now that i'm on home I can't? Or is there a setting I can change I can't remember if that's what I did previously.

I could see the potential for it being useful on a PC but I can't think of any real world examples I'd be using any time soon.
i had windows 10 pro on my diy pc. i did the auto upgrade to windows 11. had it since launch. last night i reformatted my pc and reinstalled windows 11 pro from a flash drive and i am noticing all sorts of stuff thats different. i didnt even know what i had before was home. it just gave me whatever the version is they auto gave you.

For all that is Holy; make sure you export your bit locker key. One BSOD, if you’re on a piece of crap Dell then one hardware component failure, and you’ll lose access to your data if you do not have the key. I used to work for the state government, and the Dell’s died constantly.

@@Rood67 I know it has been a whole 2 years but oh my God; I have embarrassingly lost a few laptops because of BitLocker since I had always forgotten to export my key. Dell *sucks.*
I have to correct you on one thing: TeamViewer isnt the same thing as Remote Desktop. If you want to use TeamViewer, the PC you want to connect to must be already logged in to Windows with a local user. Once youre connected to the other PC with TeamViewer you see it through the TeamViewer Window kind of like it was live streaming for you but with the addition that you can control it. This also means, that both, you and the user logged into your PC at home can see and to things at the same time. Remote Desktop however is used to actually log into the remote PC using a local user on the PC you want to connect from (or any user from your domain, if youre in one). So the local user on your PC at home must be logged out of Windows since you cant be logged in with two users at once. Im working as a IT supporter at a company and we have both Remote Desktop and TeamViewer and depending on the situation both programs can have their advantages.
Thanks for sharing, Kevin. I need to become familiar with window 10 first. A beginner! I just bought a PC window 10 from Costco 3 months ago. Bought it too early.😏😏
I am impressed, Kevin! There is such a big difference in the functionality of Home and Pro. Also you are my inspiration and I have learnt something for you. You have taught me to take advantage of the situation and adjust accordingly. Right now Windows 11 is the trend and you are uploading many Windows 11 videos and they are getting lots of views! And I remember this thumbnail from the word to PDF video. Looking forward to more such eye-opening content!
Appreciate the video! Very concise, thanks! Thanks for leaving out a long winded explanation of business features most home users won't need. We do in fact not know what these features mean, so I'm pretty sure I can live without them 😂
You need to add multiple users, and they can access with their credentials at a time. The thing is your processor and RAM should be enough to cater multiple users at a time.
I beat my head against a wall for hours the other day trying to figure out how to use remote desktop to control my work computer with Pro with my home laptop. I ended up running out of time and just using a Team Viewer trial that just effortlessly worked. I guess I have to get our network admin involved to set up some port forwarding nonsense. So much harder than it needs to be.
I think for now I'm gonna stay on windows 10 pro until the updates and run out and just stay informed of Windows 11 if they release updates that would make me consider switching earlier than intended. The only Windows 11 pro feature I'd want is Bitlocker, but spending money for only 1 additional feature is not something I want to do unless I really have no choice in the future.
What? No remote desktop on home ver.? We've had that as a standard built in windows feature forever. Guess it's some kinda security measure. All in all, I think your 3rd party software recommendations should be enough for me to go for the home version. Thanks for the invaluable info!
Pro has access to the group policy editor that Home does not. Pro was designed for small businesses. That said, most home users don't need the pro version
i'm surprised how a lot of people refuse the idea of installing win 11 just because of system requirements. Bypassing them is completely legal and you won't face any problems, unless you bypass the CPU requirements.
Hi, in 4:55 you said "we can connect to other PCs but others can't connect to us, you can be a client". I think you should've said we're server because we're serving. Hope I'm right!
I dunno. I'm confused, why would Microsoft rule out older hardware, I mean even ten year old machines could upgrade to Windows 10 from XP, but now it's like most machines without a TPM are being blacklisted. I hope MS focuses on customers cause it's not just plain Jane hardware that dictates profitability, or is MS turning up with state of the art hardware better than a Surface line.
WSL (Windows Subsystem of Linux) is also available on Win 11 Pro not on Home edition, You will need it incase you want to run docker desktop or podman desktop
Regarding Remote Desktop - is it not a security risk to use Remote Desktop over the internet. I thought Remote Desktop was really only secure in an local area network?
Sandbox mode and Hyper-V sound very cool, think I'll go with home anyway because of the price, well I probably won't even activate it for a while haha.
Hold the phone. With pro you can set up a 'virtual machine' and run an older copy of windows? Once windows 10 loses support, i'd still be virtually running an unsupported version of windows, correct? I ask bc i'd love to remain on windows 10 22H2 forever. Would this VM feature help me out? Thanks
Thanks for the video. I run a dual boot, Windows 10 and Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon. I like hearing about the many features of Window 11 Pro but don't think I am smart enough to use them or in need of them. I am 74 years old and have had a brain aneurysm burst. Then patched and then a shunt installed because the patch was leaking. It does sound neat to have the ability to run other operating systems. I would like to here more about running them from a USB flash drive like you can test drive Linux Mint. I am using a Dell Inspiron 15 Laptop computer with an Intel Core i7-7500U Processor. I take that to mean 2 cores. My Windows 10 got very slow. When I would turn on my computer it would be hours before it was fast enough to use. A lot of times I think Windows 10 used all of the CPU and hardly allowed me to use my own computer. So I got mad!! (1.) I bought a 14" HP Chromebook computer, (2.) Tried Linux Mint on a USB flash drive in the Dell laptop. It worked so good that I installed Linux Mint as adual boot and use Linux 99% of the time. I have an Android phone and use Google Chromium on the Linux Mint boot. I have the same Calendar, Contacts, Google Keep, and links to other Google apps on all 3. The 14" HP Chromebook computer, it is very fast but I still like Linux Mint the best. How many cores would I need in order for Windows to let me use my computer with out delay? I am considering buying a new 15" laptop with an i7 processor.
I have a Win10 laptop running Home edition, but I also have a Win10 Pro license that I haven't used. I guess I should upgrade that first before upgrading to Win11. Can you recommend a good video on how to do that? 😉
What is the business reason for keeping two product lines? Linux and macOS don't make a distinction on a pro and also come with many of those tools (comparable). It almost feels like it would be better to just have a slightly more expensive windows licence and then use the extra features as you mature into them.
SKUs allow Microsoft to charge more for features that some people value more than others. Basically a form of price discrimination to maximize profits.
I think the biggest pity is that if you buy a new PC, you don't get to specify the version that you get. It would be useful if, when buying; you were just given an option of which version it comes with and (f necessary) you would just pay the higher price.

Hi Kevin, do you have a video about the importance of product keys in Windows, and what do you think is the impact on the future of the pc (if any) if you bought non-authorized key? Thank you!
Thank you for the overview! I am interested in both my wife and I using the same desktop computer SIMULTANEOUSLY.... will either of these products HOME or PRO, allow us to do so? When I note simultaneously, I dont mean on the same desktop, but just each of us accessing the computer and working on our separate files / accounts ? Thank you in advance
Bitlocker may not be a bad idea for any PC that ever leaves the house, RDP can be cool if you want to turn any cheap Android tablet into a high-end laptop. Other than that the pro features aren't terribly useful for the average user who just needs to run their games, a web browser, and an office suite.
Hey Kevin. I purchased a laptop with 11 home. Can I use Remote Desktop to connect to my desktop with the laptop and the desktop connect to the laptop on my home network?
Good video. Can you explain one thing to me if you know? I installed windows 11 pro on AMD FX8350. I chose that I do not have the license. After installation, windows were activated. Does windows 11 provide free licenses to some people? Do you have any explanation for this?
@@sebastianmurawski8960 I did a clean install of win 11 pro and NOT an update from win 10 to win 11 I have Asus Sabertooth 990FX R 1.0 or GENERATION 1. It does not support TPM. The R 2.0 version supports it! Possible password still was stored on motherboard somewhere? I used a m2 ssd with ADAPTER from M2 to regular SATA. M2 ssd is from an old apple macbook air. Windows have never been installed on it. I disconnected all other hard drives in my pc during instalashon. I used the turn of the TPM. registry hack.
when I opted in to getting windows 10, I chose pro. when I upgraded to 11, I got Home. I was under the impression that if you had home, you upgraded to 11 home, and the same with the professional. what happened here? isin't windows 11 suppose to be a direct upgrade? home for home, pro for pro?? why did my machine go from pro to the home edition? it works OK, but is a downgrade from what I was understanding would happen.... I have a digital license thats permanetly activated.
@@dmaxsaint5895 yeah, thats weird... I don't understand Microsoft... maybe its too early to get the free copy of pro... anyway, I have 11 installed in a HP slim PC.. and was shocked when it wanted to upgrade to 11... I didn't think it was supported... but its works! My PC is a HP Slim S01-PF1013W. Cool little computer!
Hmm, it should upgrade you from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 Pro. Here's some more info: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/91148/wrong-version-of-windows-10-is-being-installed-fro.html
Appreciate the info. I am an IT guy but did not need to keep up on latest of the OSs because work for Gov and we are still back on win 10 and also have no input as to what we get and what it runs.
Home user here. I always go pro version for bitlocker, Remote Desktop, and hyper-v. I honestly don’t know why bitlocker is not included in the home version. How does a user secure their data on a portable device, such as a laptop?
Hey! Does system spec with i7 processor, 32 gb of ram is good for windows 10 pro for workstation? Please explain about windows 10 pro for workstation and wat are it's specs and also its benefits. Pls. Thanks in advance

My take... changes that are mostly a solution in search of a problem. (Sort of like the ribbon, which they are now removing in Explorer) Overall it appears to be somewhat dumbed down for the masses looking to emulate the Mac OS.
One can resist the 11 upgrade for a time but at some point 10 will decay to the point many will need to make the move. I will be going with pro mostly to avoid having to deal with having to have an account to tie your machine back to the MS mothership.

(1.) I bought a 14" HP Chromebook computer,
(2.) Tried Linux Mint on a USB flash drive in the Dell laptop. It worked so good that I installed Linux Mint as adual boot and use Linux 99% of the time. I have an Android phone and use Google Chromium on the Linux Mint boot. I have the same Calendar, Contacts, Google Keep, and links to other Google apps on all 3. The 14" HP Chromebook computer, it is very fast but I still like Linux Mint the best.
How many cores would I need in order for Windows to let me use my computer with out delay? I am considering buying a new 15" laptop with an i7 processor.
I tried to install windows mixed reality with windows 11 but it's not installing I have to install windows10 to install it ... what is the problem

Thanks naa daily for another windows 11 video hope there's more coming soon

I have a Win10 laptop running Home edition, but I also have a Win10 Pro license that I haven't used. I guess I should upgrade that first before upgrading to Win11. Can you recommend a good video on how to do that? 😉
Go to Settings > System > Activation... you can then swap out your key to the pro key.
@@KevinStratvert Thanks Kevin
What is the business reason for keeping two product lines? Linux and macOS don't make a distinction on a pro and also come with many of those tools (comparable). It almost feels like it would be better to just have a slightly more expensive windows licence and then use the extra features as you mature into them.
SKUs allow Microsoft to charge more for features that some people value more than others. Basically a form of price discrimination to maximize profits.
I think the biggest pity is that if you buy a new PC, you don't get to specify the version that you get. It would be useful if, when buying; you were just given an option of which version it comes with and (f necessary) you would just pay the higher price.
@@davidfishwick5573 it’s easy to upgrade just pay $99 more

Hi Kevin, do you have a video about the importance of product keys in Windows, and what do you think is the impact on the future of the pc (if any) if you bought non-authorized key? Thank you!
All I needed was a group policy editor 🥲
well you can do something from registries
Thank you for the overview! I am interested in both my wife and I using the same desktop computer SIMULTANEOUSLY.... will either of these products HOME or PRO, allow us to do so? When I note simultaneously, I dont mean on the same desktop, but just each of us accessing the computer and working on our separate files / accounts ? Thank you in advance
you didn't even mentioned group policy, which is really a crucial thing to mention
Bitlocker may not be a bad idea for any PC that ever leaves the house, RDP can be cool if you want to turn any cheap Android tablet into a high-end laptop. Other than that the pro features aren't terribly useful for the average user who just needs to run their games, a web browser, and an office suite.
I have a pro but i cant turn on notifications, it says "some of the settings are managed by your organisation" and also cant join win insider, rip
Hey Kevin. I purchased a laptop with 11 home. Can I use Remote Desktop to connect to my desktop with the laptop and the desktop connect to the laptop on my home network?
Good video.
Can you explain one thing to me if you know?
I installed windows 11 pro on AMD FX8350.
I chose that I do not have the license. After installation, windows were activated. Does windows 11 provide free licenses to some people?
Do you have any explanation for this?
you had windows previously installed and the key was active on your motherboard
@@sebastianmurawski8960
I did a clean install of win 11 pro and NOT an update from win 10 to win 11
I have
Asus Sabertooth 990FX
R 1.0 or GENERATION 1.
It does not support TPM. The R 2.0 version supports it!
Possible password still was stored on motherboard somewhere?
I used a m2 ssd with ADAPTER from M2 to regular SATA. M2 ssd is from an old apple macbook air.
Windows have never been installed on it.
I disconnected all other hard drives in my pc during instalashon.
I used the turn of the TPM. registry hack.
@@ford1546 it's not about password. It's imei of your pc and now win licencie is stored on your Microsoft account.
Hi! Please show me where to get that background? Obsessed with it! Thanks
when I opted in to getting windows 10, I chose pro. when I upgraded to 11, I got Home. I was under the impression that if you had home, you upgraded to 11 home, and the same with the professional. what happened here? isin't windows 11 suppose to be a direct upgrade? home for home, pro for pro?? why did my machine go from pro to the home edition? it works OK, but is a downgrade from what I was understanding would happen.... I have a digital license thats permanetly activated.
😒 that's weird I had windows 10 pro and I upgraded to windows 11 even thoughmy cpu is listed as unsupported. However it didn't change to home edition.
@@dmaxsaint5895 yeah, thats weird... I don't understand Microsoft... maybe its too early to get the free copy of pro... anyway, I have 11 installed in a HP slim PC.. and was shocked when it wanted to upgrade to 11... I didn't think it was supported... but its works! My PC is a HP Slim S01-PF1013W. Cool little computer!
Hmm, it should upgrade you from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 Pro. Here's some more info: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/91148/wrong-version-of-windows-10-is-being-installed-fro.html
I purchased window 10 pro key few months ago (not oem key) my pc is unsupported for windows 11 can i upgrade it to windows 11 with same key?
If I buy windows 11 pro do I get 12 pro for the normal price when I get it?
Should be a free upgrade (if not it’ll cost you the same $ amount)
Thank you
I did check and restart for use of SandBox, It is still not having that SandBox features as you showing in your video, I just bought Windows 11 Pro.
Maybe search in ms store
Appreciate the info. I am an IT guy but did not need to keep up on latest of the OSs because work for Gov and we are still back on win 10 and also have no input as to what we get and what it runs.
I think sandbox feature is very neat .
Home user here. I always go pro version for bitlocker, Remote Desktop, and hyper-v. I honestly don’t know why bitlocker is not included in the home version. How does a user secure their data on a portable device, such as a laptop?
They wanna make you pay. If everything was sorta in the home version it would be no need to go pro
Is Windows 11 Pro for Workstations similar to Windows 11 Pro? Or they are different
Thank you for this overview, now I know that I need PRO =)
Which desktop do you have in your background?
Good to know. Thanks.
Hey! Does system spec with i7 processor, 32 gb of ram is good for windows 10 pro for workstation? Please explain about windows 10 pro for workstation and wat are it's specs and also its benefits. Pls. Thanks in advance
