    Hello, White.

    All the best.

    I'm sorry but your question is still undefined because you have not told us where you saw those terms used.
    You might, for example, have seen them in explanations of the differing costs of MS365.


    All the best,

    I think that the question may concern the licensing, the average user would be a Consumer and could use either the Home or Pro versions, I have several machines with Home on some and Pro on others.

    A Business could use either the Pro or the Enterprise version, licensing of multiple machines is the issue. The Education version also is about licensing, along with Enterprise the number of users is involved. In both cases cost is also involved.

    Exactly, I couldn't explain it.

    Clearly this answer is the exact one.

    First of all, Thanks.

    As stated, based on the license, there is no Business Edition of Windows 10. There is Pro, Home, Education, and There is an Enterprise Edition that is available to large business or corporations that have many computers and all are licensed by a License Server on their Network supplied by Microsoft.
    If it is a smaller company they may install Pro. If you are a home user, you may install Home or Pro. If you are a University that is supplying many computers to the students you can get Education version.

    It depends on your needs or what environment you are using Windows in as to which version you should use.
