Microsoft has apparently secretly changed some Group Policy options in Windows 10 that will be released on August 2nd. The upcoming Windows 10 version 1607 Anniversary Update it limits the control you had in the Pro versions.
What does this mean; Pro version users with this version get fewer options available from 1511.
So too many operating system behaviors can not be controlled.
Αν διαβάσετε την περιγραφή ορισμένων ρυθμίσεων στο νέο Group Policy του επερχόμενου Windows 10 build 14393, θα διαπιστώσετε ότι οι επιλογές που αναφέρονται παρακάτω δεν είναι πλέον διαθέσιμες για τους χρήστες του Windows 10 Pro, και επιτρέπονται μόνο στις εκδόσεις Enterprise και Education:
The ability to disable the lock screen
In Windows 10, the lock screen displays fancy backgrounds and some useful information like the clock, date, and notifications. You can also choose one account user to login. If you turn off the lock screen, you can have the login screen with control identity. As the lock screen gradually merges with the login screen, Microsoft is eliminating the option to disable it for users of the Pro editions.
Disable Windows Tips
The same goes for the Group Do Not Show Windows tips policy, which could be used to turn off help tips and notifications in Windows 10. These are of course very annoying for experienced users.
Disable Microsoft Customer Experience
Using this option, you could prevent Windows 10 from automatically downloading and installing promo applications such as Candy Crush Saga Soda, Flipper, Twitter, Netflix, Pandora, MSN News and many other unwanted apps and games. With the new policy, Pro (and Home) users will not be able to prevent them from automatically downloading and installing these applications. This policy setting has no effect on these versions, and you can prevent automatic download and installation in the Enterprise and Education versions of Windows 10.
From the above you understand that Microsoft is beginning to downgrade Windows 10 Pro. These changes make Pro Pro less attractive for users who want to control their system.
So if you use Windows 10 Pro on your job you will have to accept the automatic download of games and many more from the Windows Store. In this way, Microsoft forces its customers to look at the highest-priced versions (Enterprise and Education) that are only available through a certain number of licenses. Licenses are not only more expensive but you need to buy from a certain number of licenses and upwards.
The Enterprise and Education versions appear to be the only versions that still offer full control over the deployment of unwanted applications and telemetry constraints.
(Restrict, not block).
