One of our EDR customer has few machines with Windows Home Edition. Can we know which features of EDR may or may not work for Home Edition Windows?

thanks.

Home Edition is not mentioned in this. But do we have any information if we do install it on HOME edition, whether it works or not, and if only few features work.

This information is not available in a published SK that I'm aware of.

If it's not listed as supported it's either not been tested, doesn't work or both.

If you need this please consult with your local CP SE / local office who can make a request to solution center (e.g. RFE).

Not sure about our enterprise products supporting Home edition of Windows, but we do offer ZoneAlarm for home users where Home editions are surely supported: https://www.zonealarm.com/software/extreme-security-nextgen
