Microsoft removes policies from Windows 10 Pro

I am not from MS but have version 1607 installed and can confirm the following

Turn off Microsoft consumer experiences - policy setting only applies to enterprise and education

do not show windows tips - policy setting only applies to enterprise and education

Do not display the lock screen - policy setting only applies to enterprise, server and education

Disable all apps from Windows Store - policy setting only applies to enterprise and education

there are others not mentioned in that article such as - force a specific default lock screen and logon image which only applies to enterprise, server and education.

 

group policy editer

Group Policy Editor is only available in Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, and Education versions

 

It looks like using just Pro in an Enterprise setup just isn't going to cut it anymore?

 

I have checked on the current version on my PC and those features are still available . What will happen if I chose to set a group Policy affected by this really strange decision by MS now and, later, the next build excludes access to these Group Policy features?

 

They likely will revert to the normal stock settings, as if you never changed them to begin with. Just a guess though. That or they stick until you have to eventually do a reinstall. New ISO's just recently showed up on MSDN. I haven't had a chance to install with one yet to see what might have changed and what build it is though. I've been too busy on another side project.
