In short. The main difference between Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro is the security of the operating system. Windows 10 Pro is a safer choice when it comes to protecting your PC and securing your information. In addition, you can choose to connect the Windows 10 Pro to a domain.
Windows 10 Home is the base layer that includes all the main functions you need in a computer operating system. Windows 10 Pro adds another layer with additional security and features that support businesses of all types. For those who do have to manage an office network, on the other hand, it absolutely is worth the upgrade. Windows 10 Single Language — It can be installed with the only selected language.
You cannot change or upgrade later on to a different language. Microsoft allows anyone to download Windows 10 for free and install it without a product key. And you can even pay to upgrade to a licensed copy of Windows 10 after you install it. To activate Windows 10, you need a digital license or a product key.

Yes No. Sorry this didn’t help. Thanks for your feedback. I have a Lenovo laptop that I bought in Mexico in an emergency situation. I would like to switch the operating system language to English, so I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro. When I go to System Settings, it shows that English United States has been installed, however the option to make that the default language is ghosted – the same as what it appeared when I was still running Windows Home SL.
I did use the above product key when i “accidentally” upgraded to windows 10 Pro using the product key I’ve got from softwarebeam. It did work before, now I have received a notice that I should activate my windows 10 Pro after the installation of windows 10 feature update today. I could not activate windows saying that I don’t have the valid digital license or product key. I have the original and legitimate product key from Windows 8.
I can’t even go back to Windows 10 Home Single Language, because I do not have the installation media I bought this laptop Acer EP which have the pre-installed Windows 8.
What should I do now? Please help.. Thank you. The key Andre provided is a generic key which does not activate Windows 10 Pro but just lets you install it. You must enter a valid product key later.
