Google’s Chrome OS is another lightweight system that acts as the powering force behind Chromebooks. It makes Windows 10 S perfect for education, where students may have access to a PC for long periods while working. This may frustrate people who are used to being able to download software through a browser, but we would recommend a different version of Windows if you are looking for this functionality.
This tight control over the system is also posited to prevent PCs from slowing down over time, which is often caused by cruft building up in the start-up sequences as well as apps making demands of system resources. Microsoft says this is to ensure security, as all the apps will be vetted to guarantee no nasty malware will make its way onto the system.
The major difference is that this is a locked down environment that will only allow you to download apps from the Windows Store. In fact, Microsoft describes it as a ‘specific configuration of Windows 10 Pro that offers a familiar, productive Windows experience that is streamlined for security and performance’. Windows 10 S looks and acts like standard Windows 10 in many ways.
