  1. Switching to non-N version of windows


    I have been trying to get an ISO for a non-N version of windows because the N version has so many problems. The windows media creation tool does not give me the option to download a different version. Does anyone know how I can get off this god-forsaken version of windows?

    HI Ammar,

    Your concern related to the performance of your device when running games can be due to its software configuration and/or hardware related issues. To better understand your concern, we'd like to know the following:

    • The last activities performed on your device prior to your concern.
    • The version and build of Windows 10 Enterprise N that you're using on your device. To check this, you can perform the steps posted on this

      link
      .

    The "N" editions of Windows 10 include the same functionality as other editions of Windows 10 except for media-related technologies. The N editions don't include Windows Media Player, Skype, or certain preinstalled media apps (Music, Video, Voice Recorder).
    To know more about this, you can refer to the More Information section of this

    link
    .

    In the meantime, we'd recommend performing a clean boot in Windows to isolate software conflicts on your device. To do this, you can perform the steps posted on this

    link
    . In the clean boot environment, check the specified gaming applications and see if there will be a difference in terms of frame per second (fps). The link will also provide steps to isolate the possible cause of the issue. Once you're done troubleshooting,
    check the How to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting section to revert your device to normal boot.

    We look forward to your response.

    Activation licence status check, Windows 10 Pro N vs. Windows 10 Pro

    Unfortunately, you will have to do a clean install in order to switch from the N to non-N version. You can start the installation from with N but, you will only be given the option to keep files.

    So, make sure you backup your files and prepare to reinstall apps and drivers.
