Windows 11 Home vs Pro

Windows 11 Home vs Pro: BitLocker, Hyper-V, Remote Desktop host, domain join and Group Policy. When the upgrade pays for itself.

Both editions share the same core OS, the same Start menu, the same updates and the same hardware support. Pro adds business and power-user features — BitLocker, Remote Desktop host, Hyper-V, Group Policy and domain join.

On this site Pro is only a few euros more than Home, which makes the upgrade decision very easy if you use any of the Pro features.

Unsere Empfehlung

Pick Pro for any work PC, any PC with sensitive data (BitLocker), any home lab (Hyper-V), or if you want a local account without Microsoft sign-in.

Pick Home for a secondary household PC where nobody needs encryption or remote desktop incoming.
