I didn’t realize winget was exclusive to Pro. I ran Windows 8, 8.1, and 10 Pro from launch day until I stopped using Windows altogether last year. A Windows 7 Home Premium license was significantly more expensive after Windows 8 launched at 40 bucks, and I needed an OS for my new gaming rig.

No, it’s available on home. I’ve been running it on home machines for a while now.

If you ever feel useless, just know that Edge is available for Linux on Debian and its forks.
