      And that is why you never buy home edition. Even my in-laws who are home users don’t use home version.

          Home edition removes all the good ways to manage a PC. Like classic control panels and group policies. Also Bitlocker.

            You can’t even RDP into a Home machine either, without 3rd party tools.
