Hi BHS,
Thank you for your inquiry.
The main difference is that Windows 11 Home in S mode is a more secure, lighter version of the Windows 11 Operating System that only allows the downloading of applications from the Microsoft Store. If you try to launch or install an executable or .exe file, the system prevents it.
Should you desire to switch to Windows 11 Home, here is a link to a Microsoft webpage that shares how to do so: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-and-windows-11-in-s-mode-faq-851057d6-1ee9-b9e5-c30b-93baebeebc85
We recommend reviewing these differences and making the decision that you see best fit for you.
Please let us know if you have any other questions!
