Windows 10: Why can't I downgrade from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Home ?

For the past two weeks I have been getting increasing notices from my computer that my license has expired.PS ...I never did download windows 10 pro...I am pretty sure I bought this computer with Windows 10 Home Edition and somewhere along the various upgrades, it must have changed to pro without informing me.The troubleshooter tells me that "we found a Windows 10 home digital license on this device which is running as Windows 10 Pro. To activate this license, you need to install Windows 10 Home.The only problem is....Microsoft is not allowing me to install Windows 10 Home edition. No matter

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Windows 10 Release Date Announced

Windows 10 Home will be $119, Pro $199.

Microsoft: Windows 10 Home costs $119, Pro costs $199



Which is good news actually, because Windows 8.1 is loads cheaper than previous versions (retail licensing at Windows 7 OEM prices). And it sort of puts a huge hole in the Windows subscription theory.
