[DISCUSSION] Windows 10 Pro for Workstations SKU

Just checked the license switch from 17133.1 Pro to ProWork and after a reboot Product Policy shows 6TB MaxMem64, 4 Processors supported and Persistant Memory possible.

EDIT: Ultimate Powerplan is available when clicking "Show additional plans".

 

Additional note: Power plans other than balanced are only available on desktop PCs.

 

How do I view the Product Policy?

 

You can use this https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/windows-product-policy-editor.39411/

But you may not actually want to know - it depends I think. If you want to know what version you are running you can use the other one beginning with "MT" something.

I'm not trying to be secretive - I'm just going for a fag. It is mentioned repeatedly earlier in this thread.

 

I am just trying to determine if this copy of Windows 10 Pro WS is activated forever and is the real deal. I have the watermark that says for evaluation copy

 

Please tell me the exact way you install it. Did you upgrade or install Pro for WS from the get go as you taught me how to switch the edition using your tool?

No matter what I do, I don't see that Ultimate plan, there is not show additional plans for me

 

As said it's upgraded Pro install. Please show screenshot of your powerplan settings.

@Phoenix so @mkuba50 is correct that on laptops that is the only available plan by design. Needs a desktop for it to be selectable.

 

ohhh snap!! thanks for the confirmation man.

 

Must be a hell of a laptop to be able to fully support the use of Professional Workstation OS

 

"Persistant Memory possible" when aplication are developed to allow direct load/store access to persistent memory by memory-mapping files on a persistent memory aware file system.

 

I need the full support of Professional Workstation OS

 

What's stopping you?

 

I am there!

 

Can you tell me the exact settings of that Ultimate Power plan so could create it manually?

Like what are the monitor power off times, sleep/standby times/ what are the HDD power down settings? max CPU state?

does somebody know if wfw is supporting windows10 enterprise GPO-settings? like gpo-settings to send ZERO telemetry-data to MS? They are ignored on any professional install! I could not imagine, MS is releasing a workstation version without supporting it.

also, wfw is calling smb-direct (with rdma-support) as a feature only for this version, and I am wondering, why its available as an installable feature on every professional install as well. there may be a difference on the client/server-role implementation. can a workstation act as an rdma-enabled server?

MS didn't release any info to these questions as far as my knowledge goes. Can you shed some light on to this?
