With the new Microsoft Surface laptop, Microsoft announced the new version of Window 10— streamlined Windows 10 S. The primary reason to invent it was making an operating system faster, secure along with improving battery life for better user experience. Microsoft launched the Windows 10 S installer tool to download and install Windows 10 S on a computer simply to test it. If you want to download and install Windows 10 S on your computer, this guide will help you through the process.
As part of the Windows 10 Redstone 5 development, Microsoft will be adding a new edition called “Windows 10 Lean,” which will be available for devices with low storage capacity. The reference of the new edition was first discovered in the test preview of Windows 10 (build 17650d) by Lucan on Twitter, and the installation is around 2GB. Microsoft will offer you a direct download of the Windows 10 or Windows 8.1 ISO file instead of the standard Media Creation Tool, which only runs on Windows.) When the tool asks what you want to do, select “Create installation media for another PC” and then click “Next.”.
Note: Windows 10 S installer tool works on Windows 10 Pro, Pro Education, and Enterprise. Windows 10 home and N edition users won’t be able to install Windows 10 S using this tool, but they can use the fresh install method.

What’s wrong with the Windows 10 S?
Driver Issues
Many of the drivers may or may not be installed since I can download all the drivers for my HP laptop from the HP website, but since they provide executable programs, I couldn’t just install them because Windows 10s won’t let me do it. However, you can download driver programs extract them, and used the device manager to update component drivers. Many users reported that Windows 10 S wouldn’t install component drivers closely tied to performance and power management.
Store can be nightmare
Office 365 wasn’t available for a test Dell laptop from the Windows store. Also, the GIT office application from the start menu doesn’t work and only gives this error “ the thing you are looking 4 isn’t available.” Although for test purposes you can install Windows 10 in a hyper V virtual machine or VirtualBox, I noticed that Office 365 installed without giving any error.
