Windows Defender is always on and kept updated with Windows 10 S/10 in S Mode, while Bit-locker encryption is also included to protect users’ files (not available in Windows 10 Home). Most bugs that affect Windows systems typically come from 3 rd party downloads, so it also cuts these out. One of the positive trade-offs for restricting apps to the Windows Store, is all apps are verified for security by Microsoft. However, other 3 rd party apps not yet available on the Windows Store, including Google Chrome and Adobe Creative Cloud, can only run on the full version of Windows 10.
This includes all of Microsoft’s own apps, including the full Office 365 suite, and several popular apps such as Evernote, Spotify and Photoshop Elements.
The biggest functional difference compared to Windows 10 is that 10S/10 in S mode users are restricted to apps found in Microsoft’s own Windows Store. Both the OS itself and apps load quicker, while battery life also lasts longer. The lightweight specs mean start-up times are significantly faster using Windows 10 S and Windows 10 in S Mode than with Windows 10. When you start it up for the first time, the default wallpaper may be different but the design and layout are otherwise the same. On the surface, Windows 10S and Windows 10 in S Mode look just like the full version of Windows 10. Here are some of the features of Windows 10S and Windows 10 in S Mode: Targeted at students and educators, these lightweight versions of Windows 10 are Microsoft’s answer to Google Chromebooks' success in the education market. To help improve the operating system’s efficiency and performance however, they’re restricted to apps found on the Windows Store. Windows 10S and Windows 10 in S Mode share most of the features found in the full version of Windows 10. With its April 2018 update, it changed this to an option within the full Windows 10 operating system, called “Windows 10 in S Mode”. Microsoft released Windows 10S in May 2017 as a lightweight version of Windows 10, streamlined for speed and security.
