Hi

I currently have Windows 8.1 (64-bit) Pro version.... and intend upgrade - but what's the equivalent or Better for Windows 10 (64-bit)?
E.g. the most powerful, customisable 64-bit version of Windows 10?

Exact version number please


And I know back in the day there were some cool extras to get as well, like Powertoys and stuff - extra useful programs for tweaking things/settings... any stuff like that too?


thank you

As far as what 'version'....whatever is the most recent. Currently v21H1.

Pro has some extra features...
Get pro. Latest version I don’t know what your hang up about the exact version means. You don’t have a choice basically

No there are no extras like powertoys—nor are they useful or needed

Pro has some extra features, that if you don't know why you need them, you don't need them.

I utilize both Pro and Home. My main computer uses Home. I use Pro on all the other PC in the house and which I administrate such that I can Remote Desktop to the others without them being able to Remote back to me. Only reason for the preference.
