Copy files from old drive Home vs Pro
I have experienced one of the least publicized differences between Win 10 Pro and Win 10 Home. I brought home a new IBUYPOWER machine and only "Home" was offered. I cloned the tiny 120GB SSD onto a new 480GB SSD and put the 120 in a drawer. That works well.
The problem is that I tried unsuccessfully to connect my old drive from my previous machine with a SATA to USB3 cable device to copy the old files, pictures, ect. Files not under the "Users" folder are fine, but Win 10 Home would not allow me to request access/control to my account folder on the connected drive even though it is the same user name and password.
Short of paying the money to upgrade to PRO just for this feature, (I don't need domain access or Bitlocker) is there another alternative?
