What Does the “N” Mean in Windows 10 Pro N?

The “N” stands for “Not with Media Player” — and there’s a specific, important reason this edition exists.

In 2004, the European Commission ruled that Microsoft had engaged in anti-competitive practices by bundling Windows Media Player with its operating system, limiting consumer choice in the media software market. As a result, Microsoft was required to offer versions of Windows without pre-installed media technologies in European markets.

The result: the N editions of Windows — identical to their standard counterparts in every way except for the absence of certain bundled media components.

Today, Windows 10 Pro N is available globally — not just in Europe — and is a valid, fully supported edition of Windows 10 that many professionals, IT departments, and privacy-conscious users actively prefer.

How to Add Media Features Back (If You Need Them)

If you purchase Windows 10 Pro N and later decide you want the media features — it’s simple. Microsoft provides the official Media Feature Pack as a free optional install:

Method 1 — Via Windows Settings (Windows 10 version 1903 and later):

1. Go to Settings → Apps → Optional features
2. Click Add a feature
3. Search for Media Feature Pack
4. Click Install and restart when prompted

Method 2 — Direct download: Download the Media Feature Pack for your specific Windows 10 build directly from Microsoft’s official website.

After installing the Media Feature Pack and restarting, Windows 10 Pro N gains full media parity with standard Windows 10 Pro — including Windows Media Player and all related technologies.

This flexibility is one of the key advantages of Pro N: you get a leaner default installation, with the option to add exactly what you need.

Who Should Buy Windows 10 Pro N?

Windows 10 Pro N is the smart choice in several specific scenarios:

IT administrators and system builders who want a clean OS image without pre-installed media apps — particularly useful when deploying Windows across multiple machines and controlling exactly what software is present.

Privacy-conscious users who prefer to audit and control every piece of software installed on their system, rather than having Microsoft’s media stack pre-bundled.

European users for whom Pro N was originally designed — it fully satisfies regional compliance requirements.

Users who already have preferred media software — VLC, Plex, Spotify, Zoom — and have no interest in Microsoft’s bundled alternatives. Why have software you’ll never use?

Developers and IT professionals who run virtual machines, need Remote Desktop, and manage systems via Group Policy. Pro N gives them the full toolkit without the media overhead.

Who should choose standard Windows 10 Pro instead: If you regularly use Windows Media Player, the Movies & TV app, or other built-in media tools out of the box — and don’t want to install the Media Feature Pack separately — standard Windows 10 Pro is the simpler choice. We carry that too: Windows 10 Pro →

System Requirements

Note on AMD graphics drivers: A known compatibility issue exists between Windows 10 Pro N and certain AMD GPU driver packages (including some RX series cards) related to missing Media Foundation components. If you rely on AMD GPU drivers that require Media Foundation, install the Media Feature Pack immediately after setting up Windows 10 Pro N to resolve this.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Windows 10 Pro N?

Windows 10 Pro N is the official Microsoft edition of Windows 10 Pro without pre-installed media technologies. The “N” stands for “Not with Media Player.” It was created to comply with a 2004 European Commission ruling requiring Microsoft to offer versions of Windows without bundled media components. It includes all professional features of Windows 10 Pro — BitLocker, Remote Desktop, Hyper-V, Group Policy, and more — and is a fully supported, legitimate edition of Windows 10.

Is Windows 10 Pro N missing important features?

Only media-related ones — and those are optional to restore. All security, productivity, networking, and business features of Windows 10 Pro are present in Pro N. If you need Windows Media Player or related functionality, you can install the free Media Feature Pack from Microsoft in a few clicks.

Can Windows 10 Pro N run games?

Most games run perfectly on Windows 10 Pro N. However, some games rely on Windows Media Foundation for in-game video cutscenes or audio processing. If a game fails to launch or shows errors related to media, installing the Media Feature Pack typically resolves the issue.

Does Windows 10 Pro N work with AMD GPU drivers?

Some AMD GPU driver packages (particularly for RX series and certain mining/rendering configurations) depend on Windows Media Foundation components that are absent in Pro N. If you experience driver installation failures, install the Media Feature Pack first, then reinstall your AMD drivers.

Can I upgrade from Windows 10 Pro N to Windows 10 Pro?

Not directly via a standard upgrade path — they are treated as separate editions by Microsoft’s activation system. However, installing the Media Feature Pack brings Pro N to functional parity with Pro for most purposes without needing to switch editions. If you specifically need the standard Pro edition, contact our support team before purchasing.

Is my Windows 10 Pro N license transferable?

Yes. officelicense.shop sells retail licenses, which are linked to your Microsoft account — not to your hardware. This means you can reinstall Windows 10 Pro N on the same PC as many times as needed, and transfer the license to a new PC if you upgrade.

What is the difference between Windows 10 Pro N and Windows 10 KN?

Windows 10 KN is the equivalent N edition for South Korea, created in response to a ruling by Korea’s Fair Trade Commission (similar to the European Commission’s ruling). It omits the same media components as the N edition, plus certain instant messaging and media player features specific to the Korean market. For users outside South Korea, Pro N is the appropriate edition.

Will Windows 10 Pro N receive updates?

Yes. Windows 10 Pro N receives the same security patches, feature updates, and Windows Update support as standard Windows 10 Pro. Microsoft’s end-of-support date for Windows 10 (all editions) is October 14, 2025 — after which security updates will no longer be provided. If you’re purchasing for long-term use beyond 2025, consider our Windows 11 Pro license →.
