    Windows 10 Pro after update Now Windows 10 Home


    I was running Windows 10 Pro and today Windows did a update. This motherboard was Certified Refurbished from Gigabyte too. So today I just let it do it and it got to 100%. Then it acted like I was doing a new install. So I said what the hell is this but let finish. When I went to check some thing I notice that now I have Windows 10 home.

    It is still running Version 1909 too. So what now we do updates when running Pro and after the update puts Home on. This has done other updates before this with no problems like this. So what do you do now live with what you have? Or do I have now to BUY another Pro key to get back to Pro. Plus if does another update does it put me back to HOME again?

    The thing is did this Motherboard have Home on it first before I got it? Then the Update seen this? I have been running Pro on it from January too.

    :)

    Is it time for Windows 10 already?

    Again, for those that want the update reservation and you meet the requirements ---> Upgrade to Windows 10 for Free

    And, some info from the FAQ page:

    Also, some interesting info from the Specifications page:

    Microsoft to make Windows 10 updates mandatory

    Well, at the moment at least, you can choose to defer upgrades. Under Settings > Windows Updates > Advanced options you need to check the box labeled "Defer upgrades". What does that do? Good question. The answer I've found might illuminate it to a degree.

    I hear this only applies to Pro and Enterprise editions. But I can't verify that.

    Windows 10 Pro after update Now Windows 10 Home

    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
