The biggest benefit of Pro, to me, in the Windows 10 era, is better control of automatic updates, because of access to the Group Policy Editor. Pro can join a domain, not much of a biggie for the average user, but good for the office. Pro has a few other things Home doesn't have. I might have to do that on my Home laptop & tablet. I didn't know Home could go to Pro for only $20. pls help onrocketfalls Posts: 2 Joined: 8.

First, the problem, and then what I've tried so far:Īfter installing Ubuntu on the VM, when I try to start it, I get:

In this case, on a different PC, it will not boot after the message below. On my laptop, I do still get the 'Failed to send host log' message, but Ubuntu still boots. I've tried multiple solutions I've seen after looking through different threads with this same error, but I'm still not finding anything that will help me.
