Windows 10: Windows spotlight on Windows 10 Pro Education

Hi,


can anyone help with enabling windows spotlight in my lock screen on a windows 10 pro education?


It does not show the option of windows spotlight in the drop down menu. I don't have any organization managing my account.


the version is 20H2

Os build 19042.867


I tried all the tutorials on youtube. Please help! Really want that feature available on my PC.

Configure Windows Spotlight on the lock screen (Windows 10) - Configure Windows

For managed devices running Windows 10 Enterprise and Windows 10 Education, enterprise administrators can configure a mobile device management (MDM) or Group Policy setting to prevent users from using the Windows Spotlight background. For managed devices
running Windows 10 Pro, version 1607, administrators can disable suggestions for third party apps.

 

Windows 10 Education Pro

I've not had an opportunity to test Pro Education edition yet but I am running normal Education on a Hyper-V virtual machine and on dual boot with Pro on a laptop. Basically Education is exactly as Enterprise, meant for domain or Azure AD use. Main differences when compared to Pro are missing Cortana and no possibility to use Microsoft account as initial user account when setting up Windows, although when selecting initial user as local domain user a normal local account will be created which can then be switched to a Microsoft account instead of joining a domain.

Native Windows apps in Windows 10 Education edition are the same than in Pro edition, Cortana being the only exception.

If you already have setup Windows 10 Pro on your machines with a customised image I can see no benefits in doing the job again deploying an almost similar OS. This is of course only my personal subjective opinion based on what I know at the moment; I have no knowledge or insight about what additional features (see highlighted part in quote below) Pro Education might be and if they would be reason enough to upgrade to Pro Education.
