Windows 10 Home

Why Windows 10 Home

The new operating system Windows 10 Home offers both advanced users and beginners in the “home area”, as the name suggests, optimal computer support. Like every “Home” variant from Microsoft so far, the Windows 10 Home operating system also shines with a very user-friendly new interface. In addition, Microsoft Windows 10 Home adapts to the device used and its properties, depending on the platform. The system requirements for the Windows 10 Home operating system are the same as for the two previous versions Windows 7 and 8.1. For this reason, older computers can also get along with Windows 10 Home without any problems.

Programs and games

The usual programs for calendar, mail, music, videos and photos are also included in the Windows 10 Home operating system. Another innovation that Microsoft Windows 10 Home brings with it is the new DirectX 12. As a result, games are graphically supported even better. In addition, the new function of being able to play or stream games from the Xbox One on the computer in the home network also gets the performance boost it needs.

Feature updates in the Windows 10 Home operating system

The well-known start menu has been revised in Microsoft Windows 10 Home and now also offers a tile area that can be equipped with individual functions. The desktop in the new Windows 10 Home operating system also has the new function of being able to use multiple virtual desktops for different areas. The Windows Store was unified for all versions when switching to Microsoft Windows 10 Home.

Security and Privacy

In terms of security, the Windows 10 Home operating system supports the FIDO Alliance standard 2.0 for Internet authentication. In the course of this, the biometric user authentication “Windows Hello” was introduced, which enables login without a password. When it comes to data protection, users of the Windows 10 Home operating system have greater freedom of choice compared to previous versions. In the system settings, all connections to Microsoft, which transmit data, for example in the form of feedback, can be defined personally and with individual setting points for the respective areas.

Optimal support from Microsoft Windows 10 Home

According to Microsoft, no further Windows versions will be released in the future. Instead, Windows should increasingly be used as a service. This means that Windows 10 Home buyers should not only receive updates in the form of bug fixes, but also new features that were not yet available at the time of purchase.
