Are you using Windows 10 S and not happy? You can make the leap to Windows 10 Home without having to go through the box

Windows 10 S, Microsoft's latest bet. The umpteenth turn of the Windows screw is not obtaining the results expected by the American company. What's more, it is receiving the adoption that many of us expected by having limitations as important as the ones it offers.

Not being able to install external applications from the Microsoft Store is too significant a handicap A truism that cannot be hidden even under the security umbrella with which from Redmond they defended its joint launch, although not indissolubly, to the Surface Laptop.

"Born to compete with Google&39;s Chrome OS and stand up to the education sector Windows 10 S has turned out to be a flop. We saw this when we announced that Microsoft is working on a secure version called “Windows 10 S Mode. A way to prevent the use of Win32 applications in Windows 10 by the user."

It was the second step that showed that Windows 10 S is not exactly being a success after a first that allowed us to go through 49 dollars of Windows 10 S to Windows 10 Pro. This can also be verified by seeing that sales of the Surface Laptop are residual, a far cry from the Surface Pro 2017 or the Surface Pro 4.

"

A lack of presence in the market that has caused Microsoft to take a new direction with a decision that many users will surely adopt.Owners of a computer with Windows 10 S will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 Home for free A change that beware, it will have no cost or time limit, so those who can feel cheated are those who paid $49 to ditch Windows 10 S and go Pro."

The new “Windows 10 S Mode” is the future for a more secure Windows 10 but without the limitations of Windows 10 S. A new mode that can arrive with the Spring Creators Update and in this way begin to prepare the way for Polaris, the adaptable version of Microsoft's operating system of which little by little we are seeing brushstrokes in the form of small modifications in Windows 10.
