"While Windows 10 Home already comes with a suite of extra features compared to Windows 8.1, including the digital voice assistant Cortana and Virtual Desktops, Windows 10 Pro offers greater connectivity and privacy tools.

Without one of these, you won&#39;t be able to activate your device.\nA Windows product key is a 25-character code used to activate Windows.
