Thanks, Steve. That's kinda what I thought, but I've never used the Home Version. And my friend's computer is even more secure than that....his laptop came with Windows 10 Home in S Mode. This S mode is suppose to be super secure, but it has two stringent requirements:
(1) The only browser you can use is Edge
(2) The only apps you can install are those available from the Microsoft Store. So this precludes programs like Firefox, Malwarebytes, and Team Viewer, all of which I wanted to install for my friend.

Actually it is rather hypocritical on the browser usage. For once I have to side with Google. You cannot install Chrome in 10 S because it is not in the Microsoft Store. Google wants in the Store and Microsoft agrees. The problem is that the Store will not accept any Chrome entry unless Google switches to the Edge Engine.
