    Home vs Pro


    I just got an Acer laptop with Windows 10 Home. My other machines are running Pro. Wonder if this is something with Home. When I click the sound icon in the task bar, with Home I get a menu with Pro a volume slider opens.
    Could be just a difference between Home & Pro ? Want to test this laptop before upgrading to Pro.

    Hello Ken,

    Please go ahead and post a screenshot of what you see with Home to see what it may be.

    Usually, you get a menu like below when you right click on the volume icon.
