Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro are similar software, and the probably the latest operating systems that possess several similar features. However, a very notable difference between the two is that the Windows 10 Pro comes with an advanced drive encryption technology, which helps to protect your data and information against unauthorized users.

This technology is integrated with your operating system, and a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) chip must be attached to your system. This feature is not in the Windows 10 home. In addition, only the Windows 10 Pro gives the opportunity to remotely control your machine. This option is not checked on the home version, and can even only be connected to the Pro version.

Also, in the home version, the features Domain Join and Group Policy Management are not available, while you can see them in the Pro version. The Windows 10 Pro gives a chance for the admin to control when the PC receives an update. On the contrary, the home version does not allow the user to defer updates.
