Pro differs from Home mainly in its professional and security tools. BitLocker encrypts the entire drive, which matters for compliance work. Hyper-V runs virtual machines, and Windows Sandbox opens an isolated space to test apps without affecting your main system. Azure AD handles business identity and connects the machine to company networks.
Everything in the standard Windows 11 build is included. Snap layouts arrange open windows for multitasking, DirectX 12 Ultimate supports current games at full graphics capacity, and TPM 2.0 backs biometric login by face or fingerprint. Copilot lives in the taskbar to answer questions, summarize pages, and generate content.
Before you buy, make sure to check if your PC is compatible using Microsoft’s PC Health Check app first.
