Crippled how?įirst, Windows 10 S only runs built-in applications or programs from the Windows Store. Microsoft seems to think customers want Windows 10 crippleware. This, mind you, in a market where overall PC sales - that is Windows sales - declined. Chromebook shipments grew by 38% in 2016 compared to 2015. Chromebooks are eating Microsoft’s lunch on the low end.

They work well - and that’s the real reason for Windows 10 S. It’s called a Chromebook.Ĭhromebooks are great. If you want an inexpensive laptop that’s easy to manage, is simple to do authentication on and has excellent security, you’ve already got one. It’s meant to be deployed with Microsoft’s Intune cloud-based device management program, using Azure Active Directory (AD) for authentication and Bitlocker and secure boot to provide security and a nearly zero-config experience. The idea is that Windows 10 S, which is a crippled version of Windows 10, is ideal to protect kids with a managed environment. Microsoft says its Windows 10 S target audience is schools. So tell me, why would you ever want to run Windows 10 S? This is not a small office/home office PC operating system.

Full Photoshop? Hardly! Full Autodesk? Don’t make me laugh! Heck, you can’t even run Office 365 on it - at least not yet, anyway. But serious programs, such as Microsoft Office? Nope. At least with Windows 10 S, you can run a few older Windows apps: Evernote, Slack, Photoshop Elements and Autodesk Sketch. RT ran on ARM processors, so you couldn’t run any of your existing applications on it. The best thing I can say about Windows 10 S is that it’s not Windows RT.
