Dadtom65 Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Not sure if this the place to ask this but I have always used the Pro version of Windows for years it seems, but do I really need the Pro version. Mean I only do Fltsims and other games like shooters. Plus as I have said in previous post, the last time I had to reinstall Windows I had no end of trouble getting it installed. I’m asking this as I intend to upgrade my PC maybe this year and was thinking of maybe buying a new Windows disc as I upgraded from Win 7 online and so have no disc. Also the basic Windows is cheaper than the Pro version and I have to watch the pennies as they say. Thanks Derek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadtom65 Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 Ok checked online which sorry suppose I should have done anyway and the only difference seems to be that the Pro version seems to be a bit more secure which is great in this day and age. So maybe thinking will stick with the Pro version. Derek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W2DR Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 IMNSOH, the biggest advantage is that you can control the updates with Pro. None of that "automatic" stuff.

Dadtom65 Posted January 15, 2020 Author Share Posted January 15, 2020 Thanks W2DR for the reply and yes I will stick with the Pro version plus I have found out you can check to find out your Windows key. Derek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
