Wow Alaric!
So here's the $64K question: can you use that key to upgrade Win10 Home to Win10 Pro, thus enabling gpedit.msc which is only available in Pro, then after you finish with gpedit.msc, re-enter your original Windows 10 Home key, to re-activate your Windows 10 Home, losing gpedit.msc but keeping all the settings modified through the use of gpedit.msc while you were in Win10 Pro.
geddit?
Someone try this and report back!!!!
Here's just one set I use, any one change will do:
* Start > gpedit.msc [available on Windows 10 Pro - not available on Windows 10 (non-pro) version.]
