Windows 10: Windows Creator Pro Edition

I am a little confused about the Creators Edition

I have a machine that is running Windows 10 Pro if I install the Creators Edition does it select a Creators Edition Pro or is there such a thing?

:)

 

Which is better Windows 10 pro or anniversary update

See the following:

Windows 10 Home or Pro:

Windows 10 Home or Pro – Which is the Right Edition for You?

Windows 10 1507, Windows 10 November Update (1511), Windows 10 Anniversary Update (1607), Windows 10 Creators Update (1703), Windows 10 Fall Creators Update (1709) - these are what you call Feature Updates. They are released two times per year - March and
September.

Each come in the different editions such as Home, Pro, Pro Edu, Enterprise.

 

Creators Update using Media Creation Tool?

I used the Media Creation tool for Creators Edition update from a Home Edition Windows 10, and Created a 1703 IOS file. MY Question is:

Can I take that Same 1703 ISO file and Upgrade a Windows 10 Pro Computer to Creators Edition?

 

Creators Upgrade is a build. Pro is a version. You will still be on Pro but upgraded to a new build.

 

If you download an iso, that is capable of installing either Home or Pro. Your PC will only be upgraded to the version licensed.

If you simply accept the update, and all goes well, nothing to think about.

In other words, you don't have to worry about it.

I ended up downloading the ISO and doing a clean install on my wife's laptop. If this is going to be the case, I think that I will end up telling her that her laptop is "Broken", to get her off of Windows 10 and just use the Macbook. I do not have to go through a huge headache of clean install of the OS, install Office and setup offline with each time Apple rolls out a new OS. Every time I have to upgrade Windows on her laptop, it takes about three days of my time to do it so that I am not dealing with headaches down the road if it was a roll-up update.

 

The only thing that is different is that stupid Game desktop with the OS. Otherwise everything is the same as previous editions.

 

For an upgrade you will be upgraded to the same edition (Pro, Home, etc.) as you had before. For a clean install you can select the edition to install, the media created by the MCT contains Pro, Home, Home (Single language) and Education. It will only activate automatically if you install the same edition as you had before, your digital licence on Microsoft's activation servers is only valid for one edition.

 

Microsoft has relaxed the license to allow users to use their Windows 7 & 8.x licenses now, instead of having to deal with needing a previous install of 10 on a machine. You also get the choice of either Home or Pro with the new ISO. The only issue that I am seeing is that you cannot get rid of all of the extra apps that we could with AE.

 

You still need to have a registered license for either windows 10 pro or home. One licence doe not serve both !
Whichever is associaed with your live/outlook account or UEFI bios is the version activated

 

True, but as this machine is already running Windows 10 Pro you can skip entering a key when asked. A clean install of Pro should activate automatically from the existing digital licence.

 

to remove some of the bloat after a clean install, run Powershell in admin mode and enter the following.
You can copy and paste the whole txt in one go and press enter.
Remove any lines from the text below where you dont want apps removed.
***Note the last app also removes themail app but also removes the calendar app.

 

Not anymore. Just need a licensed edition of Windows 7 or 8.x now with Creators. Microsoft is seeing less people move up to this new roll up, because they have scared everyone into believing that they will not be able to use Windows as it was before.

Microsoft marketing is now of course dealing with the fallout by issuing the statements to tell people to hold off upgrading, even though the servers are pushing the force the upgrade out to the users KB.

This is as bad of marketing as it was with Vista, 8 and now 10. Really do not know how it could get any worse, other than that people will not understand the three app store choices. Even I found the Settings menu a bit more confusing with the new changes that Microsoft has put into it.

 

It did not give me that option, since I had put the Anniversary edition on her machine when I rolled her off of Linux Mint. It is only Clean Installs with Windows that I do, since it lessens the headaches in dealing with her having to deal with Windows issues at work every day. Happy Wife, Happy Life.
