I have a laptop on Home that I use a few times aweek. It supports scheduled-at-night updates as well, doesn't it? Maybe I remember wrong.

Indeed my main laptop is on Pro.

Btw I agree that the start menu search is unimaginably bad. Insane how so many gigahertzes can be wasted so much.

Pro is way better for updates.

I'd upgrade my Home edition PC's to Pro, but for the features that I would benefit from (better update behaviour, remote desktop), it's not worth the expense to me. To upgrade an existing license from Home to Pro costs almost the same as buying a new Pro license.
